I spent my childhood turning every book report or science fair project, into an opportunity to break out the video camera.

In 2001, at the age of 18, I moved to New York City to become a filmmaker and start a band. I taught editing and motion graphics at the New York Film Academy during the day, so I could make a feature about my band at night.

I then went on the road, shooting and editing tour documentaries for bands such as Everclear and Tim McGraw.

In 2008, I transitioned to professional work as an animator/title designer for many documentaries and TV shows. Chief among them being the prestigious, “Real Housewives of New York City.”

I’ve since turned my focus towards visual effects. I was nominated for an Emmy for my work on, “Boardwalk Empire.” More recent credits include, “True Detective,” “Foxcatcher,” and “A Most Violent Year.”
