I found my love and passion for videography and photography when I was 15 years old taking a video production class at my alma mater, St. Charles West High School. Ever since the beginning, I have always poured my heart into every one of my projects, and have challenged myself to broaden my horizon of creativity. Though it started out as a hobby and something that I simply just enjoy, I quickly realized that my dedication to the craft could lead me into a career with videography and photography. From there I found Southeast Missouri State University, where I am currently pursuing undergraduate degrees in Southeast’s accredited programs; Mass Communication TV/Film and Advertising with minors in Film/Literature and Commercial Photography. As a Media Creative, I am certified in the industry standard video & photo editing software’s: Adobe Premiere Pro, and Adobe Photoshop with proficiency in majority of the Adobe Suite.

As of current, my experience in the field of mass communications spans from freelance to commercial work. I am currently Production Staff for ESPN+ at Southeast Missouri State University. Here I direct and film all of SEMO’s home athletic events with a skilled team of individuals. In addition to that, I shoot photography and videography for SEMO’s Creative Media Team in the Athletic Department, The Southeast Missourian, and am a Digital Marking & Communication Content Producer for SEMO’s Marketing Department. My depth of skill goes even further to the field of freelance. Freelance is my pride and joy because here is where I am constantly thrown new and unique projects with clients that I have the privilege to craft specifically just for them. I have freelance videography and photography experience for Residents, Bands, and Businesses of the St. Louis Area. This includes The City of St. Charles School District, Delta Asphalt Companies, Prize Roofing Company, and various local St. Louis Music Artists. My love for media has allowed me to pour my heart into every project one after another, and has shaped me into the creator that I am today.

Outside of mass communications I am a student athlete at the NCAA Division 1 school Southeast Missouri State University in both Track & Field, and Cross Country. Being a Track athlete, I am in season year round competing and training to give myself an edge against my competitors. Training for multiple hours a day, and being able to balance that with my career, education, and social life has taught me how to stay productive, organized, and on top of everything that I am currently working on. Additionally, I have played guitar for 9 years and I enjoy hiking and seeing new things both in nature, and in cities that I visit. Wherever I go I am constantly keeping my mind flowing with creativity thinking about places for another shoot, what a good shot would be, and how could I make this look unique.
