My Story

With extensive experience in general sports and motorsport environments, I bring a documentarian’s eye to fast-paced settings, emphasizing authenticity, atmosphere, and timing. Whether trackside or courtside, I aim to highlight the details that define competition, intensity, preparation, and the split-second moments that often go unnoticed.

My approach blends visual storytelling with an understanding of fan experience and live-event energy. Each frame is meant to stand on its own while contributing to a larger narrative of the game, the venue, and the people within it.

Top Five Strengths 

Adaptability

I respond willingly to the demands of the moment even if it pulls me away from my plans. I am naturally composed, levelheaded, and I rarely get flustered. Working in sports has built me for big moments, like the time I worked with ESPN and their Monday Night Football broadcast crew. I received my instructions, hit the ground running, and worked tirelessly to deliver. 

Maximizer

I want to capitalize on what I am best at. Personally, I feel It’s more productive and a lot more fun. I also try to elevate situations that may feel tarnished. An example would be my job as a photographer. For years I used low budget equipment and tried to make the best with what I had, even if it required more work. That effort paid off and has brought me amazing opportunities.

Responsibility

I take ownership for anything I commit to,  large or small. I feel emotionally bound to follow it through to completion. If for some reason I cannot deliver, I feel like I let others, including myself down. As a college student, a big responsibility is meeting deadlines. I'm someone who keeps track of due dates and turns stuff in on time. However, there have been times where I've slipped up, and it pains me to turn something in late.

Futuristic

When the present is too frustrating, my visions of the future energize me. When I describe the possibilities and potential I see to other people, I like to be vivid as possible. I'm a daydreamer, and sometimes you'll catch me in the act. Any time I make inquiries about working or photographing an event, my mind does not stop envisioning myself in that scenario until I hear back. 

Believer

My core values give life meaning and satisfaction, and they affect my behaviors and decisions. My values give me direction, guiding me through the temptations and distractions of life, keeping a consistent set of priorities. I've found myself in situations whether it be in the classroom, my job, or life in general where my back was against the wall, but I stayed true to myself and made it count when it mattered most.
