Never be satisfied

Never stop learning

Leave no stone unturned

 

ME

I’m a long and short form video editor who is blending artistic knowledge and media industry experience with a technical skillset in computer science. An Atlanta native, I received a BA in Film Production from Georgia State University and have experienced the media landscape from nearly every angle (pun intended). In 2018 I became a managing partner at Moonshine Post-Production, a full-service post house serving film and television clients throughout the world. That same year I also became a member of the Motion Picture Editors Guild, and went on to cut a number of feature films and television projects, including eight segments of Shudder’s SVOD series Creepshow. I continue to accept creative editorial work as scheduling permits.

I also have a passion for science and technology. In 2020 I began an additional degree in computer science from Georgia Institute of Technology, with a focus on media and intelligence. The goal is to combine my creative credentials with hard technical knowledge to improve storytelling and the artistic process. The applications of computing for creative expression are vast, under-explored, and ever changing.

EDITOR

 

I’ve done a lot. On-set electrician, camera assistant, visual effects compositor, motion graphics artist, associate producer, post-producer, and editor. But editing is what I’m known for. I’ve been lucky enough to be trusted with some pretty incredible stories, from music videos and mini-docs, to streaming series and feature films. My storytelling editorial skills are enhanced by a deep knowledge of sound design and visual effects compositing. 

Nothing beats the moment when a director claps their hands and exclaims, ‘That’s it!’ 

 
 
 

Bringing this 80’s horror classic back from the dead in all of its camp and glory has been some of the most fun and challenge I’ve enjoyed in the cutting room.

Creepshow is available for streaming on Shudder.

LOW-COST VENTILATOR PROTOTYPE

A project to design and prototype a low cost ventilator during the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic.

 
 

RESULTS

The final device achieves a maximum cycle rate of 4.5 seconds with a theoretical volume of 1.6L. Tidal volume in men and women is .5L, meaning the device approximates a relatively deep breath.

THE WORLD IS BEAUTIFUL

I want to capture the moments that inspire me. Shooting in both visible and infrared spectrum light, I am always searching for frames that evoke emotion, or tell the story of a person or a place. These are a few recent favorites.
