Cover Letter

From Ventura County, California born and raised my passion for film and photography began at 15 years old when my parents gifted me my first camera. I played with cameras through high school and later decided to pursue filmmaking professionally by studying at the University of California Irvine for undergraduate film studies and later Columbia University in New York City for graduate film school. My background consists of a world class education in filmmaking and a decade of hands on production experience. My experience spans from big budget Hollywood productions to small independent films, commercials, travel, documentary, food, corporate, web series, social media, and non-profit community content creation. Filmmaking, travel, and food are my passions. Along with filmmaking I also have a background in food and hospitality. I have worked in the restaurant industry for 15 years, eventually opening my own restaurant in 2021. I have extensive international travel experience, specifically throughout Latin America. I backpacked for three months through Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru; twice traveled to Cuba, (once while Castro was in Power, once Post Castro) for the international film school outside Havana, EICTV, and to document changes in the island country during the Obama administration. During the COVID-19 pandemic I spent 4 months in Brazil filming an independent feature documentary about Carnaval being canceled for the first time in 100 years. I also started a virtual live arts production company which live streams shows, concerts, and events. My most recent work consists of producing live content for virtual shows, independent travel documentary, food web series, commercial, and corporate media. I love to create beautiful images.
