When I watched my first film, I was entertained like many others were with that experience. But when I actually started watching films, I was addicted. I started watching pretty much everything under the sun and it wasn't until I was in college that I decided that this is where I wanted my professional life to go.

When I was in college, I worked in a post house that specialized in film. I learned everything about the medium that started it all. After learning how to shoot, clean, cut, project and archive film, I decided that I wanted to get out and into the world. I started producing Team Outdoors. It was a half-hour weekly hunting and fishing show broadcast on ESPN, OLN and later, The Sportsman Channel. After producing, directing, shooting and editing Team Outdoors for nearly three years, I decided I wanted to take what I had learned and bring it to the wonderful world of advertising. I was the Broadcast and Multimedia Producer at Strategic America for a little over five years. While in that role, I discovered that I wanted to get back into shooting and storytelling. Which brings us up to today.
