  • Founder.

    I grew up in a small town where sports were my everything. Raised by my grandparents, I learned work early whether it was helping on the farm or working in the family funeral and furniture business. They gave me the moral compass that drives me today.

    But I always wanted more. High school was a mix of big dreams and bad decisions, weekend parties, drinking, and chasing the wrong crowd. Even then, I stayed grounded through sports and started my first hustle: a car detailing business with a friend. That’s when I realized I loved building things.

    By college, I knew I needed change. I quit soccer, moved schools, found mentors, and reconnected with my faith. Around that time, I dove headfirst into what I now call YouTube University, teaching myself everything I know about marketing through hours of videos and trial and error. That’s where I fell in love with cameras… and then with business.

    Today, I’ve forged those experiences into something bigger: creating content that moves people and helping brands grow through creativity and strategy.

Had fun creating this spec ad for Red Bull on the road. Here’s how we did it: 1. Take a bunch of photos of subject drinking from each can. 2. Add photos to video sequence with 0.2 frames per second. 3. Match cut and re frame and re size 4. Add music and your done! @redbull
The main event for @shamrock_fc 356. Excited for this one tonight!
