Lost Summit Films
About
I am an Award-Winning Freelance Filmmaker based in the Portland, Oregon Area. My primary passion is Cinematography and Editing, although I also have a background in all aspects of post-production, music design, photography and graphics/web design. I am also an FAA-Licensed UAV pilot, with 6 years of aerial experience.
I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area. From a young age, I developed a devotion to film, in particular, cinematography. After attending the film program at Syracuse University, I decided to pack my camera on my back and travel to India and Nepal, documenting my spiritual journey to Everest Base Camp. This became "A Gentle Walk", my first feature documentary. Since then, I have created and been a part of projects ranging from Auto Racing, Wine and Travel, Music, Religion and Spirituality, Horror, and the Natural World. Utilizing a unique filming and editing style, I hope to continue to seek out intriguing and thought-provoking subjects for my work.
I am especially passionate for documentary work, having had the opportunity to travel the world creating award-winning projects on a wide-range of subjects. I enjoy the variety and uniqueness of my work, with every job being an adventure.
