Final cut.
Never knew I could love a place so much. 4 years of being a full-time student while traveling for work, no more unexcused absences. Officially full time freelance. To my family, my friends, and everyone at UF who made this chapter what it was, I cannot thank you enough. Forever a Gator. New York soon…
Ever since I picked up a camera a little over 5 years ago, being on an NFL sideline was always the dream.
Today that dream became real, in my hometown of Philly. Still doesn’t feel real typing that.
I don’t usually post stuff like this, but this one means a lot. Countless late nights, long flights, missed sleep, and nonstop hustle to get better every single day. This moment feels like a huge milestone and a reminder that the work really does add up.
So grateful for everyone who’s helped me along the way, and especially thank you to @officialjuan for trusting me with this opportunity.
This is everything I ever dreamed of when I first picked up a camera. Proud of how far I’ve come, and just getting started.
Time to Strike. @49ers
Some of my favorite moments of my recent editing and VFX work for the San Francisco 49ers playoff hype video. I put a ton of time into this over the past week and couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. Huge thank you to @officialjuan and the rest of the team for giving me the space to push this creatively. Full video is pinned on their page! ⛏️

OMEGA Planet Ocean
Had the opportunity to travel to Miami and edit an event recap for Omega’s reveal of their newest Seamaster watch. It was incredible being able to work alongside such a talented crew. Massive shoutout to @jackbotti for your trust in me and guidance on-site. Many more to come

Bimini to the World. @adidasbasketball
Had the chance to edit both the campaign cut + YouTube vlog for Adidas’s newest star @vj.edgecombe showing how Bimini shaped his journey to being a Top 3 draft pick in the NBA draft.
I love how this one turned out. No fancy studio, no visual effects, just raw emotion and energy. Huge thanks to @tombender and Big Studio for bringing me in on this one. The team effort behind this project was special, and it’s just the beginning.
We’ve got some crazy work coming in the next few months. Stay tuned.

and we’re back. @gatorsfb
Great to be back for my senior year with the Gators as they took down No. 9 Texas on Saturday. This season has already been special, and I am incredibly grateful for the talented team I get to work alongside. Videos like this would not be possible without the other shooters who help capture the game from every angle to bring it all together. This may be my favorite football recap I’ve ever made. Plenty more to come.
Born In The Swamp.
@gatorade x @lafavre.us
Had a blast shooting and editing this piece with LaFavre for their collaboration with Gatorade. They built the creative vision and I directed how we brought it to life on set.
We only had 20 minutes to get everything we needed with Myles in the lab before heading out to the middle of nowhere in a swamp to finish the shoot with Dallas. Grateful for the trust and the chance to create something special. 🔬🧪
Nothing to do, all day to do it🇨🇭
After working every day in June, I finally took a few days to unplug and solo hike through the Swiss Alps. Just me, my camera, and some peace of mind. One of the most incredible experiences I’ve had.
