I help brands make authentic content by capturing beauty in everyday moments and celebrating the human spirit.

My career  took an unexpected turn with near-death experiences, filming in Chad, Africa, and surviving an IED blast in Afghanistan while embedded with the Green Berets for National Geographic. These moments compelled me to slow down, savor life's quieter moments, and look for  beauty in the mundane. Working as a director and cinematographer in some of the world’s most unforgiving locations, I love leading crews through challenges, facing obstacles and working together to surpass client expectations every time.

While I've been fortunate to pick up a Sundance Cinematography award and work on several Emmy-winning projects, the true beauty I've encountered lies in the human spirit. Whether witnessing a community's resilience in the face of adversity or capturing moments of vulnerability, there's an undeniable magic in the enduring power of the human spirit.

I founded Still Life Projects to bring my experience to brands and agencies in need of authentic short-form content that resonates with audiences on a profound level.
