About
I am an enthusiastic, multi-skilled, creative Cameraman / Editor. A passionate filmmaker, I have extensive experience in shooting and editing corporate, social, editorial, fashion and promotional video content. My work has been featured in TIME, GQ, BBC, Monocle, Dezeen, Highsnobiety, The Future Laboratory, Naomi Campbell’s youtube channel, and A/J +. Quick to grasp new ideas and concepts, I strive to develop innovative and creative solutions to problems. Working under tight deadlines has become second nature and I have developed a strong ability to perform effectively under pressure – alone and as part of a team. A future thinker, I endeavour to tell the stories of those who are both masters and leaders of their craft within my own distinct and aesthetically rich, visual style.
