My love of cinema and photography has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I began officially taking digital media classes in high school and upon graduation was given a my first Canon DSLR, which became my constant companion. This ultimately resulted in a studio portrait space and a full time career by the time I was 21 in my hometown of Kansas City, but I quickly started feeling the itch to pursue more and moved to Los Angeles in September of 2016. Within a year I established myself as a full time set lighting technician and started earning union days, as well as pursuing cinematography credits when as the opportunities arise. This year I have attached my name to two pilots as cinematographer as well as earning over 20 permit days as an IATSE Local 728 set lighting technician or best boy electrician, making my entrance into the local imminent.
