Demo Reel 2025

I’m a DP, editor, and colorist with a strong background in dynamic visual storytelling and full-service post-production. My 5 years of experience behind the camera and in the editing bay have helped me develop a solid understanding of the entire video production process (from storyboards to final delivery), and my time in the photography world has helped me hone a sharp eye for color, nuanced narrative storytelling, and the ability to catch details most others would miss.

Having worked across commercial, documentary, narrative, and editorial projects, I’m comfortable in everything from lean crew run-and-gun doc-style shoots to more involved, multi-day stylized and post-heavy projects. I edit and color exclusively in DaVinci Resolve, with additional experience in all mainstream NLE systems and tools like Dehancer, Izotope, Frame.IO, and the Adobe Creative Suite. On set, I’ve worked with Canon and Sony camera systems, Aputure lighting setups (and lots of natural light), and led small crews across a variety of fast-paced environments. Above all, I know how to adapt to whatever the project demands.

My work leans into grounded, emotionally driven visuals with a strong emphasis on tone and texture. I’m drawn to scenes that feel honest and real. I approach each project with a balance of intuition, technical precision, and creative collaboration.

In addition to my technical background, I pride myself on clear, collaborative communication and the ability to work closely with directors, producers, and clients to help bring their vision to life. Whether I’m working remotely or on set, I understand the importance of being responsive, organized, and solution-oriented throughout every phase of production.

I’d love the opportunity to bring that same energy and dedication to your project. Let’s talk!
