I graduated with a BS in Film Production from Southern Adventist University in May, 2018 and immediately started working in the film industry. I freelanced in the Chattanooga, TN and Atlanta, GA area while working on pre-production for my short film “blue jay”, which we shot between October, 2018 and January, 2019.
After production, I moved back to my home state of Maine where I worked on season 4 of the DIY network show, “Maine Cabin Masters” and helped start the digital food/wine series, “Vine Time TV” in Portland, Maine. In September, 2019 I relocated to Tacoma, WA and worked both freelance and as a seasonal videographer/editor for the Washington State House of Representatives for the 2020 Legislative Session.
In April, 2020 I moved back to Maine where I have been living since. I have worked and moved up through production on Maine Cabin Masters, starting as a PA but now working as a Producer/Shooter and Camera Operator. Working with Vine Time from 2020 to the end of 2021, we made a popular youtube channel and a full 22 minute tv pilot.
In 2022 I finished editing of ‘blue jay”
I aim to make content that’s meaningful to both artist, viewer, and client. My work is very personal and features the conflict and struggle most prevalent in my own life and those close to me. I hope that viewers find that honesty and can relate it to similar emotions they’ve felt in their lives. The importance of connection and honesty are common themes throughout my work.
Film has taught me incredible lessons and brought out my most honest emotions. Those moments have been experiences I will hold onto forever, and I hope to capture and provide audiences with similar experiences. Film creates community and bring us together, I’d love to hear about new stories and new opportunities to create.
