More About Me

My passion for storytelling through film evolved without consciously recognizing it. My great-grandmother was a native Alaskan who had an incredible memory and extraordinary storytelling abilities. Her journey, rich history, and stories are a tremendous inspiration as they have been passed down to three generations. Each summer, I would travel to Alaska and return with hours of adventure footage,and thanks to my dad,
I had access to an 8mm MiniDV camcorder and a laptop to edit a short recap. The early technical training created a comfort level around cameras and non-linear editing, allowing me to experiment with different effects, styles, and later, narrative storytelling.

Although my passion for the outdoors inspires my creativity, it is not the only driving force. I find the way people interact fascinating, which inspired me to work on a short film called Textopia. A story based on a society where speaking is now forbidden and only texting is allowed. I was fortunate to work as the cinematographer and editor; this short film was integral to my creative growth and inspired some of my most recent short films.

Simply put, I am a motivated filmmaker who wants to collaborate with others to tell interesting and exciting stories that move people to think while being entertained.
