I’ve been passionate about filmmaking since I was a child. In middle school, I taught myself how to edit, and began making short films with my friends and younger brothers. In high school, after my first film study class, I decided I wanted to make my passion for video production and editing a career.
I attended Marist College, majoring in Media Studies and Production. While there, I worked for Marist Athletics as a Camera Operator and Technical Director in charge of the school's "Red Fox Network". I participated in Marist's "Marist in Manhattan" program senior year, and interned at Light Iron, where I worked on coloring and finishing feature films and TV shows for Lionsgate, CBS Films, Netflix, HBO, Amazon, and more. I graduated in May of 2016 magna cum laude.
After graduating, I worked as an assistant editor at ASCD. In addition to editor duties, I directed and produced ASCD's weekly Facebook Live streams, and helped develop and curate a new proprietary streaming service for ASCD's hundreds of videos, aimed at helping teachers and educators all around the world better themselves.
Currently, I am both a senior assistant editor and graphics assistant on HGTV's hit reality series, House Hunters International. I have worked on over 1000 episodes, and am one of the show’s most veteran AEs. I support more than a dozen editors delivering up to 9 episodes per week to the network.
In 2021, I collaborated with Arrow McLaren SP IndyCar team via a design competition held by their sponsor. My proposed livery design, based on World War I dazzle camo, was selected to be displayed on both the #5 and #7 cars at the inaugural Nashville Grand Prix.
In my spare time I enjoy playing video games, watching the latest thriller, and enjoying the outdoors through scuba diving, snowboarding, mountain biking, and more. I edit on occasion outside of work, notably for sneaker personality Cody Templet.
