At a young age, I filmed my friends skateboarding and quickly realized this was something I enjoyed and wanted to make a career out of it. I love being able to tell stories through the art of video. When I’m not behind a camera or in-front of a computer editing, I love to travel with my fiancee, Linzy. When we are not traveling, we like to hit up the golf course, go on hikes and attend concerts. We have a Shih Tzu named Teddy and we enjoy spending time with our family and friends.
