Coach. Storyteller. Hype man.

About · [Greeley, Colorado]

I'm a creative storyteller, videographer, and communications professional who loves bringing ideas to life.

Ten years ago, I landed my first paid gig filming a video for a sports supplement store. Since then, I've had the opportunity to shoot weddings, music videos, and family portraits; produce online curriculum for Colorado State University; create social media content for companies and nonprofits; and even start three podcasts along the way.

For the past six years, I've been the communications coordinator for a school in Colorado, where I've built its digital presence from the ground up. I've had my hands in just about everything, from video production and photography to web development, graphic design, branding, and recruiting campaigns. Most recently, I filmed and produced a feature-length documentary celebrating four high school girls' state championship teams.

I love the creative process, whether that's getting behind a camera, finding the story in an interview, building a brand, or figuring out how to turn a big idea into something people can connect with.

I've spent much of my career wearing a lot of hats, learning as I go, and finding ways to make things happen. I'm always looking for the next opportunity to create something meaningful, work with talented people, and tell stories worth sharing.

Teaching

I’ve helped teach media and journalism classes for high school and middle school students. It’s been a lot of fun showing kids an exciting world that they might be interested in some day. One of the most rewarding parts has been working with high school interns, several of whom have gone on to launch their own freelance photography businesses.

Coaching

I've spent the last seven years coaching pole vault, and I absolutely love it! 2 of my athletes are competing at the college level, and 1 of them is the current Colorado State Record Holder. Competing and coaching have always been a big part of my life, and I've learned a lot along the way. There's nothing quite like getting young athletes excited about their sport, helping them chase big goals, and watching them surprise themselves with what they can accomplish. It's easily one of my favorite things to do.
