About

I’m an Emmy award-winning filmmaker who believes the best stories are built from a symphony of sight, sound, and heart. My work is a blend of artistic vision and engineering discipline, dedicated to finding that perfect harmony.

My path to filmmaking wasn't typical. I started in engineering, a world that taught me to love structure, process, and elegant solutions. Today, I apply that same disciplined mindset to creative storytelling. It’s my secret weapon for juggling complex projects, leading teams, and turning ambitious ideas into reality—on time and on budget.

Sound is the heartbeat of my work. Drawing on a lifelong passion for music, I mix rich soundtracks and weave in authentic audio collected from life to create truly immersive experiences. Paired with dynamic motion graphics and a sharp editorial eye, my goal is to craft narratives that don't just communicate, but connect.

My story is one of grit and drive, taking me from the wrong side of the tracks to a top-15 university and a career I love. I'm unapologetically organized, thrive on a deadline, and might just sleep during render times.

When I'm not creating, you can find me: Bicycling, searching for the perfect coffee, lost in a podcast, or listening to Stevie Nicks at full volume.
