This is MY CRAFT
I picked up a video camera somewhere in high school, and that’s where the creative bug bit me and hasn’t let go since. I love telling compelling stories and try to push myself to better my craft with every project.
Have Camera & Passport, Will Travel
I can shoot wherever you need me to. I’ve done my fair share of interviews on mountaintops. It’s safe to say I love traveling.
From Concept to Screen
I love being involved in the whole process, not just the part where I pick up my camera and start capturing images. I have a knack for visualizing and developing concepts into ready-to-shoot scripts.
From Music Videos to Corporate Interviews
Having worked in the industry for a number of years, I have experience in making videos for various clients and end users, and I love a challenge.
I love working together
People are the biggest asset to any organisation or effort. Working in a team is almost always more fun than going at it solo.

The great outdoors await
I try living my life to a motto I coined back in high school, inspired by Sean Covey’s “The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Teens” and the whole concept of the “Courage Zone” a.k.a. Robert Frost and his road less traveled. It reads: The courage zone is my playground....
