OBJECTIVE

I am an experienced Cinematographer excited for every opportunity to fulfill story ideas through creating a visual aesthetic with motivated camera movement and dynamic lighting. I look forward to new challenges and I’m currently seeking work as the Director of Photography for your next project, no matter how big or small. EDUCATION

St. John’s University Bachelors In Science, T.V. and Film. December, 2013 - 3.5 GPA Chapman University Masters In Fine Arts, Cinematography. May, 2017 - 3.4 GPA ABOUT ME

I come from a life long curiosity of Film, Media, and Fine Arts. Having been raised in New York City my educational resources were diverse from a young age and I attribute much of my ongoing passion for the Arts and Sciences to this. My interests started with studying Painting, followed by Mixed Media and great works of Photography. The darkroom quickly became my home for creative enterprise, as I advanced my craft, I realized that I wouldn't be satisfied until I had completely fulfilled the potential of this relatively new medium. Cinematography then became my calling and in 2009 I began my theoretical study of the moving image at St. John’s University in Queens, NY. Continuing to explore these multifaceted forms of Visual Arts and after involving myself in production jobs for several years in New York, I was invited to attend the Film Conservatory at Chapman University, Dodge College of Film and Media Arts in 2014. This served as an exciting opportunity to further develop my voice as a Storyteller and Artist while exploring Los Angeles for the first time. Now having studied film theory at such length and with my broad array of production experience, I continue to grow closer to the images I create, my crew, and most importantly the audiences emotions. I am classically trained in the art film, but never afraid to put the rules aside in order to follow the heart of the story. I’m well equipped to bring your next vision to the screen and I have also been employed for consulting design ideas, marketing projects, and corporate art installations of all kinds. Feel free to contact me anytime for more information. EQUIPMENT KNOWLEDGE & TECHNICAL SKILLS
