About Me.

I'm a Columbia College Chicago Film School alum who emphasized in creative producing. I also have a mixed background in post-production, writing, assistant directing, and several other aspects of production. In addition, I’ve worked professionally in feature film development and packaging, live event videography, IT, and graphic/web design.

 

After getting started by making rudimentary animations in PowerPoint in elementary school, by age 9 I was running around with a camcorder making short films. By 11, I was working at a local community access channel filming and editing events, operating broadcast cameras and switchers. At age 16, I began working at a Skydiving dropzone, where I've gone on to edit over 3,000 customer video/stills packages.  Since then, I studied at Columbia Chicago, lived in LA, Chicago, and worked with some really cool, interesting people. Along the way, I've gotten to work on a multitude of cool projects spanning short and feature films, television, live events, and many other formats in many different roles and capacities. Last year I just finished my first independent feature documentary with my friend Grant Osum, Minnesota Tiger Man.  It just recently started streaming in the spring of 2023 after getting picked up by Questar Entertainment.


I'm currently 24 years old, based in Chicago working on "American Greed" for CNBC at Bill Kurtis' Kurtis Productions.  As of mid-2023, I've managed post-production for 36 new episodes of the show, in addition to various other projects.

I also have a full production audio kit and do freelance location sound.

In my free time outside of my storytelling pursuits, I really enjoy studying Jazz/Blues Guitar, playing tennis, trying to lift up and set down heavy stuff,  and watching the Milwaukee Bucks.
