About Me

From high school to college at Furman University to graduate studies at the New York Studio School, my education was a balanced immersion in the sciences, fine arts, design and music. My professional career initially began in commercial music and record production, transforming over time into video production.

I've founded several production companies over the years, the most recent being LiftMedia360, which is a media content producer for larger clients in industrial technology, IT and pharmaceuticals. While I continue to work with Lift as director of photography and editor, I am equally interested in cultivating a private roster of clients who have a need for high caliber video production but on smaller projects with smaller budgets than what LiftMedia360 would require.

I have ten plus years experience in the following areas:
- video editing
- video shooting (Lead DP & 2nd Camera)
- location lighting
- location sound
- video mastering for broadcast (color correction)
- motion graphics and text animation (After Effects CS Suite)
- audio mixing
- sound design
- original music composition
- script writing
- voice over artist & vo recording facilities
