I began my journey in high school when I purchased a Sony FX1 prosumer camera. From there, I gained my Avid Certification and began my professional career. I have shot everything from sports to commercial videos for multi-national clientele. My previous clients include but are not limited to CST, CSS, Tribune Media, Signal Marketing Group, and The Baddish Group. I thrive in a fast-paced environment with tight deadlines. I like to be where the action is. Nothing is off limits for me when it comes to getting the shot. I believe in showing as much emotion as possible in every frame of video. Whether shooting a crime scene or a travel series, the emotion is there, and I will portray that in the best way possible. I shoot on the latest and greatest equipment in the industry. My weapon of choice, the Canon EOS Cinema series cameras with L-Series lenses.

I started making films when I was a teenager and shot some film for a TV station when I was in college. When digital video cameras came on the scene in the 1990s, my employer at the time, the Voice of America, began a program to provide video stories online and to affiliate stations around the world. I was the first correspondent to jump on that opportunity, in 1997, and continued shooting video until I retired in June, 2017. In most cases I shot the video and did the interviews for the story, then wrote it, voiced the narration and edited the package. Since then I have been involved in projects of my own and have shot video for a cosmetic commercial and for a YouTube channel host. I have also been involved in some film contests in Houston.
