Who Am I?
One of my favorite people, Stephen Fry, once wrote, "Incuriosity is the oddest and most foolish failing there is." And what more can I say? I believe that it is my unending fascination with everything that the world has to offer that drives me to create diverse projects across many genres and forms.
I love stories in all their forms, and I see everything I do as a form of storytelling. I am privileged to have tried my hand at many kinds of storytelling, through video, photography, editing, and writing. This website represents my best work in all of these realms.
It is my goal in life to never stop learning, and I believe that every project I work on teaches me something new about my field and about the world. I cannot wait to continue my lifelong education.
I am an Adobe Certified Professional in Video Design, with certifications in Adobe Premiere (April 6, 2021, renewed June 14, 2024), Adobe After Effects (February 1, 2023), and Adobe Photoshop (August 25, 2023). I am also a summa cum laude graduate of Temple University's department of Media Studies and Production, with a second major in Linguistics. I spent a year after college living in Dublin, Ireland, learning about Irish culture, language, history, politics, and—of course—media, an experience that impacted my life and work in many ways. I am passionate about education and communication through media, and I believe that quality media can truly make a difference.
I hope you enjoy my work, and please do not hesitate to contact me.
