Selected Work
I earned an MFA from Emerson College and spent years working independently as a director of photography, producer, and editor across commercial and narrative projects. In 2017, I founded Pineapple Cut Pictures, the production company I still run today. I later joined a growing technology company as its first in-house videographer, helped build the video function from the ground up, and went on to become Associate Creative Director, guiding creative work across brand, product, and customer storytelling alongside videographers, editors, motion designers, and cross-functional partners.
Although I’ve stepped into creative leadership, I still love being hands-on as a producer, director, cinematographer, and editor. I enjoy leading teams, but creating is still what excites me most.
