about

Over the past 7 years of filmmaking I’ve honed my soft and hard skills as…

From run-n-gun style self-contained international productions, to leading a hyper-localized documentary film crews, I’m agile in any production environment and relentlessly curious whether leading or following.

I’ve learned collaboration often yields stronger results than working independently, and at times complicates a simple process; there’s wisdom in knowing the difference and when to pivot.

Working with Opal Eyes is like looking into a mirror; what you see is what you get and what you feel is what is there.

If you’ve come this far, let’s take the next step together.
