One of the many challenges of the film industry is choosing who you want to work with. Department heads define not just the quality of the work, but the working environment as well. With that in mind here's a little bit of info about me:

I'm a nice guy, for better or worse, I'm not a yeller. That doesn't mean I'm a pushover it just means I set the tone on set, and on my set the tone is mellow.

I'm hungry both at lunch and in my career. That's why I shot my first feature at 20, and why I got my first Emmy nomination only 3 years out of college. I intend to have an ASC next to my name sooner then later, and I expect my work and the work of my collaborators to reflect that same hunger.

I'm an idealist. I believe film can create transformative experiences, giving people an opportunity to see the world from new perspectives. That is why I'm doing this crazy thing, working the hours I work; I want to help this world along.

Give me call. I like coffee in the morning, beer in the evening, and I'd be happy to meet for either to discuss your production and how we can work together.
