A Little Bit About Me

I’m a visual artist at heart, with a storyteller’s instinct that always seems to surface when music is involved. My creative world lives at the intersection of sound and image—I’m a musician, photographer, illustrator, animator, and videographer who loves translating energy, emotion, and atmosphere into visuals that feel alive.

 

I’ve worked as a writer and photographer for RockintheBurbs.com and Cooldadmusic.com, and as a Multimedia Specialist at Montclair State University, creating content that connects people to stories, experiences, and communities.

 

As an illustrator, I blend traditional and digital techniques. I primarily work with colored pencil, micron pens, and Prismacolor markers, but I’ve recently fallen in love with digital illustration and animation. Along the way, I’ve taken on side projects as a cartoonist and designer, sharpening a style that’s both playful and expressive.

 

Photography has taken me everywhere from higher education institutions to live music venues, private events, and freelance shoots. Live shows are my favorite to capture (there’s nothing like the electricity of a crowd), but I rarely leave home without my camera. Street and portrait photography remain personal passions that keep me inspired.

 

As a videographer, I’ve worked on a wide range of projects including music videos, live sessions, marketing content, and educational productions. I primarily shoot on Sony and Nikon DSLR cameras and am a highly skilled video editor, fluent in Adobe Creative Cloud—Premiere Pro, After Effects, Audition, Photoshop, Lightroom, and Illustrator.If you’re looking for someone who brings passion, creativity, and intention to every project, I’d love to collaborate. I care deeply about the work I create, and that dedication shows in every final frame.
