NYC/LA based Director, Director of Photography, and co-owner of Canteen.

I am a multi-dimensional tabletop Director specializing in food, beverage and cosmetics. My work is versatile and spans all genres that might include tabletop cinematography from lifestyle to docu and many in between. I came up behind the camera and am a member of International Cinematographers Guild Local 600. My technical experience behind the camera means I aim to emphasize taste-appeal through lighting, lensing, and camera movement. In my cinematography I’m passionate about exploring textures, liquids, and light. My goal when working with actors is to cultivate authenticity. I search for natural, unguarded moments of connection between actors but also between the actors and their food. I find tabletop to be the perfect intersection of my lifelong interests in food, culture, visual art, and cinematography.

I have recently won Telly Awards for Cinematography from collaborations with Stella Artois and Mountain Dew. I’ve enjoyed working with the world’s top ad agencies and brands including Red Robin, Kings Hawaiian, Starbucks, and Budweiser.

When I’m not on set you can find me getting my hands dirty one way or another, from perfecting recipes in the kitchen, to wrenching motorcycles.

I am a proud co-owner and partner at LA based tabletop production studio Canteen, where I work closely with other tabletop directors and help steer our tabletop production approach from a creative and technological POV.
