## About

```text
As a freelance Cinematographer and Gaffer, I've worked on more than 500 productions across film, television, streaming, commercials, and branded media. My work includes cinematography for NBCUniversal’s “Laugh Out Loud with Kevin Hart” and Nike’s “LeBron James — More Than a Game,” as well as gaffing for Disney+’s “Prop Culture.”

I collaborate with directors, producers, and clients to develop a visual language and design camera and lighting gear lists that balance creative goals with production budgets. I’m an IATSE Local 728 member with a Bachelor of Arts in Film & Television Production from Brooks Institute of Photography.
