About

I first picked up a camera when I was six years old and I never put it down.

I’m a Los Angeles–based filmmaker and editor with experience across the entire filmmaking process, from pre-production through post. My work has ranged from shoestring-budget music videos to grip work on major Hollywood productions such as Dopesick. I currently focus primarily on editing, motion graphics, and shooting interviews for nonprofits like the California Regional Center and charities such as Cancer for College.

My approach to editing and motion graphics is rooted in finding the right rhythm for each story while keeping projects organized—because reconnecting lost media in Premiere isn’t fun. To me, editing is where a project finally comes together: seemingly random pieces become something coherent, meaningful, and entertaining. I’m constantly learning new techniques, refining my workflows, and finding smarter ways to work.

As a filmmaker, I’m curious about the world we live in, the norms we take for granted, and the ways people navigate them. I’m inspired by Werner Herzog’s poetic sensibility and search for ecstatic truth, as well as Adam Curtis’s cultural criticism and archival storytelling. In my motion graphics, I draw on the rough, scrappy aesthetics of punk zines and the collage-like absurdity of Monty Python’s animations but with a little more edge.

As the World Burns is an ongoing series of written and video essays examining politics, history, and culture. Combining highbrow analysis with lowbrow humor, it aims to educate, entertain, and encourage people to see familiar subjects in a new light.

Ultimately, I want to create work that is as entertaining as it is thought-provoking—work that inspires curiosity, critical thinking, and a sense of wonder through the medium of cinema.
