"San Jose Cinematographer I’m an award winning DP, Steadicam/Gimbal Op, Cam Op, and 1st AC living in San Jose, CA. I’m an associate member of the Society of Camera Operators. I’m both self taught and art school educated with a BFA in Cinematography from the Academy of Art University 2009. I have experience with all forms of films- narrative, feature films, tv pilots, short films, documentary, music video, commercial, branded content, and sports / action. As a young child I discovered my father’s 35mm still camera and Hi video camera in the early 90’s. Obsessed with the movie theater, I developed an obsession with capturing reality. I love collaboration! At age 13 I founded the world’s first martial arts tricking team, “Loopkicks.” I’m also a drummer for the band “Lafayette” and make beats as “HMPMLK”."

"Attending UCSC I have taken a number of courses focusing on narrative production, documentary production, animation, audio engineering, and film theory. Such a large university environment has provided amazing opportunities to understand the value of creative collaboration and authentic listening. Through my employment at LinkedIn and Sun Beat Films I’ve had the time to become fluent in the entire Adobe Suite (most confidently Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, Audition, and Media Encoder) and with a wide array of video and lighting equipment. As a first generation college student who’s supported myself with various jobs throughout the past four years, I understand the importance of time management and the prioritization of tasks. I feel as though I’ve learned to communicate effectively and take constructive feedback, both through academia and the professional positions I hold as a cinematographer, editor, and production assistant."

"From a young age, I have loved the film industry. I started professional acting in 2014, starring in an Emmy-nominated commercial and Oscar-qualified short film. From all my experience in front of the camera, I decided to learn about life behind the camera and instantly became inspired. Instead of me getting a car for my 16th birthday, my parents bought me my first professional camera. That kickstarted my rental house based in LA which has exponentially grown into me owning a variety of equipment and producing content for businesses, influencers, narratives, and more. I plan to continue my journey in the film industry while attending SJSU for business. This means I will be moving between San Jose and Los Angeles for gigs and family."
