For the longest time, photography has always been a passion of mine, however it wasn't until I discovered video that I knew my career was headed in the right direction.
As a storyteller, I want my pictures and sound to touch individuals in such a way that they are moved emotionally. From nats of a siren or a hammer hitting a nail, I want the viewer to hear and see everything I'm experiencing in the field. As the director of photography, the visuals should allow the audience to see beyond the story to get a true glimpse of what happened in the past or the present.
As a Full - Time Staff Photographer for WPHL, I started in September of 2016. Prior to PHL, I worked as a Staff Photographer for WBOC in Salisbury, Maryland from January of 2015 to September of 2016. I attended Rowan University and graduated Class of '14 with a BS Degree in Radio, Television & Film and a concentration in New Media.
