Originally from Seattle, Washington, I achieved my lifelong dream of moving to New York City in 2018. As a wide-eyed 20-year-old new to the big city, like trying on shoes, I tried many careers over the years that did not fit quite right. That was, until filmmaking slipped on perfectly.

Having a background in photography, composing beautiful and compelling images was second nature to me. The thrill of weaving them together to cohesively tell a story was so compelling to me that it ignited a deep passion for the art and led me to pursue a career in the field.

Entirely self-taught, I started with a simple Sony A7RIII, making small vignettes that reflected my life and inner-world at the time and posted them on social media. From there, I grew — both in skill and in community — connecting with talented local filmmakers who took me under their wing and challenged me to reach new heights.

Today, with my sights set on becoming an established Director of Photography, I work as both a camera operator and first assistant camera throughout the Tri-State area — collaborating with like-minded storytellers and industry professionals to help push filmmaking into its next era.
