I’m just a gal who picked up a camera at six years old and never put it down. From homemade movies with friends to narrative shorts that explore human connection, storytelling has always been at the center of my world. I’m a Chicago & Tampa-based videographer passionate about blending emotion, atmosphere, and authenticity through documentary work. Whether I’m behind the lens capturing a real moment or directing a story that’s lived in my imagination for years, my goal is always the same — to make people feel something.

I shot my first wedding in 2016 and was instantly hooked, but my love for visual storytelling extends far beyond that. From weddings and brand films to travel, documentary, and community storytelling, I’m always finding new ways to create and connect through film. Based in Chicago & Tampa but always ready to explore, I feel endlessly grateful to do what I love every single day.

"Diamonds aren't a girl's best friend...

Her sony camera is."

I would always sneak my dad’s Sony camcorder out to the backyard whenever I could. I fell in love with filmmaking at a very young age, and for my eighth birthday, my parents bought me my own camera — a gift that changed everything. My passion led me to DePaul University, where I earned my BA in Digital Cinema Production, and I’ve been chasing stories through a lens ever since.
