I started as an assistant to a casting director for commercials, then transitioned to helping with picture vehicles. To better understand acting, I took classes, worked as a photo double in a big movie, and did a lot of background work. Eventually, I became a production assistant in reality TV.

Wanting to advance, I went back to school and earned a BA in screenwriting. Shortly after, I began writing and directing actor reels while accumulating hundreds of props and costumes to make my work look believable. This led to my first production design job, where I found success as a designer and set dresser for independent movies, TV pilots, and commercials. I also freelanced for a recycling company that primarily worked with commercial production companies, where I became passionate about sustainability and recycling. Today, many of my props and costumes are recycled from well-known TV shows and commercials.

An injury made me shift gears, and led me to my first corporate job as an in-house filmmaker for a major franchise. I quickly advanced in responsibility and vision, but the work slowed down so I was put on contract. I decided to go back to school and earned a certificate in marketing with the additional achievement of making the dean's list.

While taking marketing classes, I applied what I learned to my freelance filmmaking business and started seeing success right away. Today, I help business owners and video producers with video marketing and video production services.
