I am a story teller. My passion is to express stories through the visual art form, using still photography, motion picture, and brand design. My technical mind was developed in the U.S. Navy and my admiration and dedication to film was realized at RIT School of Film and Animation. My passion extends to film, family, and photography; all my work is a reflection of who I am.

As a native son of Greenville, SC, have lived many lives, and many places. In my adventures have been a US Navy Aviation Electronics Tech Nuclear Command and Control Aircrewmen, a remote sensor tech, a software designer, a marketer for an industrial bakery, and a filmmaker working on films for Industrial, TV, Narrative film, Documentaries,  and reality TV, both as camera op and editor. I began as a 2d animation student at RIT , then taught After Effects and computer image courses as adjunct. Recently taught Filmmaking summer camp at the SC Governors School of the Arts. Professionally, I have delivered hundreds of commercials, and tens of TV shows. Edited For CBS Sports, and made short films accepted into international film festivals.
