ABOUT ME
Born in Chicago. Raised with a great appreciation of art and film. Growing up I fell in love with science fiction and monster movies, the words "why are you watching this, you have seen it a thousand times" were said a lot. I studied many art forms in school but gravitated to Photography, 35mm darkroom specifically, Which became one of my great loves, and it became my primary career goal.
I worked as a photographer for a decade, both fine art and client work, while I enjoyed the work I felt I had stories to tell that photography alone could not tell. So I went back to school to study Film, as I feel it is a natural merging of my love of photography and movies.
My Film goals are to work with truly creative and like minded people to create fantastically beautiful, Unique, bizarre and fun movies. Narrative pieces would be the ultimate goal, sci fi and adventure pieces, to tell stories that mean a lot to me. Films that a young version of myself would love, but I have had loads of fun working on projects varying from documentary to commercial and would enjoy working on those projects.
My photography goals now are to focus on artistic pieces and hone my skills, but still will happily take jobs offered.
