Past Work

Here are some examples of the freelance work I’ve done in the past:

This is my demo reel from September 2025, showing the variety of content I have created over the past year or two.

I made this fun video with my FPV drone to showcase the fall colors and my friends’ motorcycles.

I made this video during a 2024 road trip. I chose to focus my efforts during the trip to show my skills in aerial videography.

In this video, I was tasked to create a video from raw video clips.

I made this video about my storm-chasing adventure chasing a mile-wide tornado in KS. In this video, I flexed my skills in video editing and 3D graphics in After Effects. I hope to make more of these videos, but they take quite a while to produce.

I bring a wide range of experience—from producing content with Milwaukee's FOX6, to creating promotional videos for local police departments, to livestreaming and developing story-driven coverage of severe weather.
