What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters creativity and offers opportunities for growth in media production.

I am a self-motivated and creative professional with a strong background in the media industry, particularly in television production. As the Founder of Panth3rz Studios, I have successfully navigated startup operations, taking ideas from concept to delivery and producing entertaining and inspiring pieces. My journey has been marked by a commitment to fostering client growth and brand awareness through innovative marketing campaigns.

With extensive experience in photography and cinematography, I have captured approximately 6000 high-quality images and recorded numerous video projects across Jamaica. My technical skills include proficiency in Adobe Photoshop CC, Final Cut Pro X, and Davinci Resolve, allowing me to create compelling visual content. I thrive under pressure and am always inspired by creativity-focused artistic challenges, ensuring that I deliver high-quality work consistently.
