I shape stories in the edit — finding rhythm, tension, and feeling in the footage long after the camera stops.

I'm a film student at the University of Colorado Boulder, working toward a BA in Cinema Arts and Moving Imagery with a minor in Business and a certificate in Music Technology. That mix is deliberate: I want to cut picture and shape sound, and understand the work it takes to get a project made and seen.

Before film, I co-founded Ass Kickers United, a lifestyle fitness brand where I produced content, sourced product, and built sales channels from scratch. The discipline carried over — I trained Muay Thai to an orange shirt and studied in Thailand. I bring that same focus to the timeline.

My goal is post-production: to be the editor a director trusts with their footage. I'm based in Boulder and open to roles, internships, and collaborations.
