Bio: I’m a live music concert junkie, and I’ve been hooked ever since I was 13 when I went to three life changing shows at the Lakeland Civic Center in 1997-1998, which included: No Doubt, Cake & The Vandals; 311 & Goldfinger; and Korn, Incubus & Hed PE. I’m also a music videographer. Around 2009 I began filming bands and ever since I my passion has grown exponentially as my love for the music eventually infused videography to my experiences, and now I have an addiction to filming artists and bands as they create their magically cohesive art, whether it’s a full set from the back of the house with my Canon Vixia camcorder on a tripod or just a quick clip from the front of the rails with my phone. I also to make my own loud noises on my drums from time to time.
I’m a Florida native, born and raised in Orlando, spent my last two years of high school in Cocoa Beach, and graduated from Florida State University in Tallahassee (GO NOLES!) where I earned a Bachelor’s degree with a double major in Finance & Real Estate. Currently I’m a commercial real estate appraiser by day, and a video filming sober goat by night (don’t let the name fool ya). Work hard, party harder, and listen to Umphrey’s McGee.
