I started in the film & video industry as a grip and electrician. I worked my way into lighting, directing and shooting on a broad range of commercials and infomercials. It was at this juncture in my career that I became interested in Steadicam. I enrolled in extensive Steadicam workshops and I was honored to be trained by brilliant operators such as Guy Bee, Chris Haarhoff, Dan Kneece, Dave Emmericks, Bob Ulland, Mark O'Kane, Rusty Geller and Shane Yeend. I've been working as Director of Photography, camera operator and Steadicam operator for over 15 years and my credits include 35mm & HD features, episodic television, national commercials, music videos and corporate.
