I help small businesses and solo-preneurs make a great first impression with video on their websites so they can attract high-value prospective clients without feeling like they have to be Hollywood actors.

My inspiration comes from my father's creative and candid people photography. I further developed my skills through an outstanding high school photography program and as a news photographer for the Daily Illini while attending the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana. Following that, I spent many years in high-tech startups including Apple, WebEx and Genentech, often working with digital images and video. In 2009 I completed the immersive filmmaking program at the Berkeley Digital Film Institute where I worked on numerous film projects and developed technical skills in practically every filmmaking role. I created several of my own short films, culminating in my thesis project, Andiamo!, which premiered at the Zaentz Media Center in Berkeley, CA in 2009. The San Francisco Bay Area is where I live and work.
