About Me

Born in Rockford, Illinois, I started life playing soccer and tramping through lakes, ponds and corn fields.  I pursued my passion for videography and storytelling with a degree from the University of Missouri in Broadcast Journalism.  After graduation, I headed down to Sydney, Australia to start my working career. 

Working in all things production, I got hands on experience with global clients and national TV broadcasting.  After spending a year and a half working in Sydney I returned to Chicago where I’ve been freelance producing and working on short films.  Career highlights include the Make Poverty History concert in Melbourne, Australia, the WotNext Music Tour, our short films ‘The Mystery of Denis Masters’, the Australian Olympic Swim Team Documentary, National Guard Documentary Series and Kyocera’s All Access at the Virgin Mobile Free Fest.

I primarily work freelance but am looking for a full-time position.  Please feel free to contact me if you have any production or photography needs you want fulfilled! I'd be happy to consult on your project or take it all the way from conception through to post-production.  I have an extensive network of filmmakers here in Chicago available for collaboration.
