I’m captivated by the intersection of art and technology. Finding ways to merge new tech and established systems to drive fresh creative outcomes that are visually connective, contextually innovative, and technically realistic (i.e. within the budget) actually brings me joy. I’ve filled a number of roles over time including DoP, Producer, LD, director, and creative consultant. Stylistically, I place a strong focus on documentary-style storytelling, while leaning into bold lighting and creative lensing to breathe life into the characters and narratives on screen.

For 20+ years I’ve been helping design and craft visuals for international events, global brands, and high profile celebrities across a range of content genres including advertising, episodics, MV’s, image campaigns, and sports. I’ve been hired as a creative consultant for Formula One’s brand films. I’ve been a DoP and producer for multiple World Series, Super Bowls, and dozens of other national sports championship broadcasts. I’ve produced and filmed various commercial and social projects for ad agencies and content studios. I’ve spent literally thousands of days on set and enjoy creative problem solving within real world logistical constraints.

In 2012, I founded Technician Films, a production solutions company that has since become a trusted production partner for clients including Warner Brothers and Disney. We have produced and filmed commercials, talk shows, image campaigns, episodic pilots, and one-off productions of all types. www.technicianfilms.com
