-
3 YEARS AGO I DECIDED TO TAKE A LEAP OF FAITH AND TRY MY LUCK IN THE FILM/TELEVISION INDUSTRY. I WAS IN NO PLACE TO MAKE THE JUMP AND IF IT WAS NOT ENOUGH TO LEAVE MY JOB OF 4 YEARS, I THEN MOVED TO LA WITHIN A MONTH OR TWO OF LEAVING MY JOB! SINCE THEN I HAVE BEEN WORKING AS A FREELANCE 1ST AC/CINEMATOGRAPHER/PHOTOGRAPHER. I HAVE BEEN TRULY FORTUNATE IN THE OPPORTUNITIES THAT HAVE BEEN PRESENTED TO ME AND WITH EVERY PRODUCTION OR CLIENT I HAVE WORKED WITH I CONTINUE TO GROW AND BETTER MY SKILLS AS A FILMMAKER.
THERE IS A HUGE SENSE OF ACCOMPLISHMENT WHEN WATCHING A PROJECT OR PRODUCTION NO MATTER HOW BIG OR HOW SMALL MY ROLE WAS ON IT. IT;S A FEELING THE I CONTINUE TO CHASE AND AM LUCKY ENOUGH TO KNOW WHO AND WHAT IT IS I WANT TO BECOME IN THE FUTURE. THE END GOAL FOR ME IS TO BECOME A CINEMATOGRAPHER FOR FEATURE FILMS.
