Summary
After completing a MFA Film Production degree in cinematography from Florida State University's College of Motion Picture Arts, I am confident that my academic history and drive for creative solutions will bring a positive new facet to your team. Along with cinematography, I have a passion for editing. I love putting the pieces together and using editing techniques to drive the story forward. I have spent countless hours editing social media content, corporate videos, music videos, Youtube videos and my personal projects. Inspired by innovation, I thrive on experimenting with different concepts and have been commended for inspiring and developing unique and thought-provoking ideas. I have cultivated sequence selection, narration and color correction skills through a range of practical experience. These strengths, combined with a passion for the industry have created a strong foundation.
