Hi! I’m a skilled and enthusiastic filmmaker, video editor, and photographer with 5+ years of experience making documentary and narrative short films. A compassionate storyteller with a love for outdoor adventure, conservation, wildlife photography, comedy, music videos, you name it, I’ve dipped my toes in almost everything. And I’m just getting started! I’ve worked as a PA, Grip, AC across various commercial and documentary film sets. I’ve also directed and edited comedy sketches, parodies, music videos, edited award-winning 48 hour film festival pieces, and had my work screened at multiple festivals. After an intense stint doing stand-up comedy, coupled with four years of acting and directing in college student theater, I turned my interests toward the screen. These experiences gave me a profoundly keen eye for emotional performances and comedic timing that have fostered my ability to inject both levity and depth into my film work. I now live and work remotely from Boulder, CO and travel often for work. I am highly skilled in editing in Adobe Premiere Pro with experience in DaVinci Resolve, After Effects, Photoshop, Lightroom. I’m eager to get to know you and take your vision or projects to the next level!

I specialize in crafting narrative pieces. I bring a keen insight and dedication to telling a story in the best form. Photography, filmmaking, writing, graphic design, and digital creation give me a wide range of experience to pull from. Being self-taught in the tools and workflows of the trade, I bring a deep understanding and appreciation to all aspects of each project. I thrive in harsh environments, driving and working with small, high skilled, and talented crews. Crafting intimate, and emotional, stories with a unique style and flare. Being a consummate problem solver, I have always gravitated to working on unique and demanding projects. I apply my love for technology, narrative, and adventure to create experiences that have garnered millions of views on social media. I combine a life of adventure with the mediums of photography, filmmaking, writing, and graphics. Working in some of the harshest conditions, I have developed a unique fluency for capturing impossible shots. Known for my acumen in endurance, I am undaunted by long hours, brutal environments, and rugged terrains. The most radical of situations often lead to the most compelling stories. Starting at a young age, with a gift of a camcorder, I created movies with friends. Years later, the tradition continued as I made music videos, short films, and snowboarding/ skiing videos. I have worked for several years professionally, learning and developing a style and technique, and earned projects that have taken me around the world.

I create handcrafted documentary films full of heart and empathy. Films that inspire and resonate long after viewing. Stories of heroes and victims, science and progress, climate and environment. With more than 20 years as a photojournalist and filmmaker, my passion for storytelling has taken me from the burning ghats of Varanasi, India, to a smuggler's tunnel in Nogales, Mexico. Capturing the complexities of the human spirit and creating images that move others to act is the greatest gift of my profession. During my newspaper career, I was twice named Scripps Howard photographer of the year and earned dozens of national and international awards. I work for newspapers, including The Washington Post and NY Times, magazines and media outlets, as well as commercial and nonprofit clients. I also teach video storytelling and serve as a board member of the Atlanta Photojournalism Seminar. I have made two very successful feature length documentaries – one about a homeless man running from his demons and finding grace in unlikely places, and another about finding solutions to racial inequality following the death of George Floyd. My short films have earned three Emmys and a national Addy. I live in Boulder, Colorado and welcome any assignments or inquiries, near or far.

Naturally curious and driven, I love to collaborate with inspiring people to create unbiased and honest storytelling projects and narrative brand development. I was born and reside in Colorado and also lived in New Mexico and Texas. I take frequent road trips throughout the West and often get lost in the mountains. When not shooting photos, I'm usually drinking coffee or entertaining my little guy, Levi. I make a mean carnitas and tequila is my drink, preferably añejo. I buy too many photo books. My latest purchase and current favorite is David Monteleone's Simonocene. I speak English, Spanish and I'm learning Italian. I have to; my wife grew up in Sicily. I eat a lot of cannoli. Give me a call. Let's grab an americano, high five, and better yet, work together.
