The first photo is me holding a plaque made from Red Rocks with Berk, right before I ran visuals for a sold-out Tape B Red Rocks show. I still don’t think it’s fully sunk in. Surreal. Humbling. And overwhelming.
The second photo is exactly one year ago of me at a dead-end AV job, holding a bag of ice over my head after a screen leg fell on me. Exhausted. Overworked. Physically drained. Some days it felt unsafe. Some nights I wondered if I’d ever get the chance to do something that actually mattered.
Seeing these two moments side by side makes it clear how far small steps can take you. I’ve spent years figuring out how to turn the things I love into a life. Learning by doing. Asking questions. Breaking things. Fixing them. Slowly getting better each time. Every crash, every all-nighter, every barely-paid gig, every question I thought was dumb added up. Every small step mattered more than I realized at the time.
I wasn’t alone. I met people who showed me the way, who stayed late, who shared knowledge they didn’t have to. People who reminded me that this isn’t a solo journey. A dream only becomes real when you’re connected with the people around you.
Big Thank you to Tape B, his team, production, and everyone behind the scenes who trusted me with this moment. To friends, colleagues, and mentors who’ve guided me, challenged me, and believed in me, it means more than words. And to my girlfriend, my backbone, for 4 AM airport drives, for always showing up, for keeping me grounded, for believing in me when I couldn’t. Thank you for all you do for us.
I feel lucky. I really do. And I can’t wait to get back on tour Friday. 🤍
EDC Las Vegas 2025 with Tape B.
After working with Berk over the last 4 years designing and animating many different tour concepts, I was fortunate enough to join the team for EDC and mix the art I made in my room in front of over 50,000 music fans.
The turnout was incredible, and I’m very happy with the results, everything was done live with no timecode or show control.
This is what I love to do, and I feel immense gratitude for being able to do it. Big thanks to Berk for entrusting me to bring his ideas to life, and big thanks to the team for making sure everything ran smoothly and was taken care of.

5 months into the year without a post sounds about right lol. Been really appreciating the time away, spending more time with people I love, and getting back into shape. It’s honestly been breathing new life into me.
Here’s some shots + videos from our last few shows with the Tape B team. Spending the next couple months cooking up new content and I’m hyped to finally start showing it in the second half of the year.
Take care of yourselves 🤍

Haven’t gotten around to sharing this yet, but over the last few months I’ve been working on an Unreal Engine workflow that lets me add much more realistic camera movement in real time using the Unreal VCam app on iOS. This way i can create more exploration pieces with realistic head movement.
Excited to be home in a few weeks and keep building on it.
Hope you enjoy.

12 shows in 2 weeks on the road with the best crew! Some of the most fun shows I’ve done, it feels like I’m in a dream (probably because of 3 hours of sleep) 💀
But in all seriousness, big shoutout to the Tape B team for making sure everything runs solid! We’ve still got many more dates coming up with venues I’ve always wanted to play! 🤍
See ya in your city, but for now enjoy these clips!
Spent over 50 hours hand sculpting Sea God from the Berserk Manga and never had a chance to play it live until the moment was perfect! And that lost lands Main stage def was fitting #lostlandsfestival #tapeb #berserk #stagevisual
The Soundtrack To Everything You Forgot Full Fall Tour
📼 🧞♂️🔉
Beyond stoked to share that I will be joining the Tape B team for a massive bus tour this fall. This will be my first time producing content for a massive, one-of-a-kind production setup and running visuals for 25 dates around the US.
This year has been full of firsts for me, and I am so excited to continue learning and working on incredible productions at some of my favorite festivals and venues.
Big thanks to the Tape B team, and thank you all for the support. Please come out and say hello if I’m coming to a city near you! 🤍
And just like that! 2 months, 20+ flights, 9 sets, and turning 29 years old all in the mix! 🫠
Feeling overwhelmed with emotions. Grateful to have spent the last few weeks running visuals for @tapebbeats and traveling across the country doing what I love. From wild stage designs to live camera ops, every show pushed me to grow.
Some of my favorite moments: working the B2B2B with @levity.music and @crankdat , and learning something new every night. Big shoutout to @mp4.luke for being an absolute rock, and to everyone involved behind the scenes it really does take a village.
Taking a second to breathe, recharge, and get ready for what’s next. We’re just getting started. 🙏🏻🧞♂️
