i love people + their stories.
he/him.
born and raised in the pacific northwest, with a heart for adventure, art, and family.
whatever the project is, story is king. my job is to bring a story to life through collaboration and implementation of the artistic vision, while maintaining reverence and respect for the subject of the story.
i’m an optimistic nihilist.
life is way more fun when you don’t take it seriously.
i’m obsessed with making life the most enjoyable it can be, despite the circumstances. i want my corner to be happy, because i believe happiness breeds collaboration and trust.
some hobbies.
you’ll frequently find me shredding on either my dirt bike or my mountain bike, or trying to place one of my young boys on a dirt bike or mountain bike. i also love to eat, and visit new places.
i love doing life with my wife and two kids.
i really do love people.
they make this career what it is. from long, established relationships to meeting up for a drink with someone brand new, the people matter most to me.
you’ll never see me barking at people on set. and if you do, maybe ask if i’m okay?
i take care of my set families, and consistently prioritize a healthy set culture and meaningful relationships above all else.
for me, if the people aren’t happy, the stories aren’t told the way they should be.
my interests.
with a background in narrative and documentary, i bring a unique perspective to the industry, prioritizing light and story above all else.
i’ve done just about every job in camera and GE with just about every camera system on the market, and have worked around the world as a Director, Producer, and Director of Photography with clients such as Nike, Autodesk, Epic Games, Isopure, Kobe Beef Japan, and A&E Networks (plus a lot more).
some of my interests include documentary, docu-style commercial, fashion, food, tabletop and nonprofit work. i pride myself in being a kind, passionate collaborator that strives to create the best work with the tools I have - and i always have fun doing it.
i am also a member of VIA Films - a specialty team in portland, oregon that focuses on tabletop/robot, food/liquid, phantom/slomo, automotive/arm car, and aerial/air-to-air production.
i am a licensed FAA Part 107 drone pilot.
