Bio

I’m a Seattle-based Cinematographer who’s passionate about capturing the stories in life with thoughtful composition and lighting. My focus is to deliver beautiful results through communication, organization, and collaboration. I have a wide gamut of experience filming corporate, narrative, documentary, music videos, branded content, and live events.

I own a Canon C300 Mark II camera package that is ready for anything from docu-style work to studio setups. Some clients that I’ve worked with include University of Washington, Microsoft, Starbucks, Slalom, Amazon, and Expedia. I also love working as Assistant Camera. I support the production with my detailed knowledge of camera equipment and can nail that critical focus on every shot.

I started my cinematography journey by studying photography for 3 years at Tacoma School of the Arts. Photography taught me how to tell stories told within a frame and the drama of lighting. I went on to study at Columbus College of Art and Design where I found my passion for the craft and collaboration of filmmaking. During the summer of my junior year is when I filmed my first feature-length film “The Village of Middlevale”.

After graduating, I joined the team at Pyramide Productions as an Editor and Cinematographer for 5 years. There I had the opportunity to hone my skills for corporate clients. On the weekends I would push myself creatively and work with my friends filming narrative projects that got into festivals like HollyShorts, FilmQuest and Tacoma Film Festival.
