About me

I recently graduated from the State University of New York at Oswego with a degree in Broadcasting & Cinema and Screen Studies, and a minor in Creative Writing. I've spent the last few years working across the production stack — from creative interning at American High to years as an A/V technician for the Miss Military Star Pageant.

I care about the craft of telling stories clearly, whether that's a short film, a live broadcast, or a tightly-cut video package.
