Biography

I began my journey into producing and cinematography 14 years ago, shooting my first feature film, *House Guest Massacre* (2013), starring Alex Vincent from the *Child's Play* franchise (as Andy Barclay). Over the years, I've worked my way up by contributing to numerous films and TV shows, collaborating with actors such as Burt Reynolds, Amy Smart, Sean Astin, Michael Shannon, Alexander Ludwig, and Charles Melton.

From 2020 to 2024, I served as Director of Photography on several films, beginning with *Mind Games*, starring A-list talents Robert LaSardo, Jim Fitzpatrick, and Michael Paré, as well as *Soulmates*. I was later hired to shoot two studio films, *Megaboa* and *Shark Waters*, both of which had small theatrical releases through The Asylum, the studio behind the *Sharknado* franchise. In addition, I was the cinematographer for the Tubi original film *DC Down*, directed by Geoff Meed and starring Eric Roberts and Sean Young.

In 2023, I produced and shot my most ambitious project to date, *Off Rip* (Sports/Drama), directed by and starring Jadon Cal, which is currently in post-production.

Today, I continue to pursue my passion for cinematography and producing, working on feature-length films with larger budgets and crews, while applying the wide range of skills and creative experience I've gained over the past decade.

My creative goals have always relied on collaborative efforts to create visually stunning images. Taking a film project from the beginning stages to the final premier screening, I have applied experience in the whole process of filmmaking. These efforts have resulted in several feature-length films and television series.

My work has a natural look with a hint of realism with a touch of creative drama. I prioritize building off of the environment of the film set and location.
