About Me
Being a fifth generation artist, I fell in love with visual story telling at a very young age.
I’m a freelance videographer, video editor, and animator based out of Washington, DC. I've had a successful professional career in video production and post-production spanning over 16 years. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we were introduced to remote work and that has given many of us an opportunity to really think about the future of our careers, including myself.
I myself being a dreamer used this unique opportunity to go back to school and pursue my dream to work in compositing and visual effects as a full-time career.. In addition to completing my online courses, I've also obtained my FAA Part 107 certification (drone pilot license) and have opened a 3D printing business, Rouge Props.
For me, the creative life was never a choice. What began as a decade-long affinity for animation gave way to an obsession with all things visual. When photography was not enough, I had to try my hand at video, then design, and motion graphics. In an age where people are inundated with visual content, it’s not enough to make beautiful images, we must seek opportunities to better understand how we interact with creative—to advocate visionary ideas and empower each other to build the future we want to see.
