Moment that sparked your passion

For me, it started with “home movies”. I was the kid begging my parents to let me hold the camera and would watch our home movies over and over again to relive the memories. I ran a photo business before joining Unbridled Media, and was drawn to being a part of a team that’s driven by storytelling through all forms of media.

Favorite Quote

It’s not what you gather, but what you scatter that tells what kind of life you have lived. – Helen Walton

Personal Hobbies

I like to go hiking, camp, play with my toddler, spend time with family, check out live music, and binge documentaries.

Favorite Childhood Memory

Summers with my cousins on Lake Winnepesaukee in New Hampshire – waterskiing, sleeping on the boat, hiking the surrounding mountains and picking wild blueberries. My grandparents have a cabin there and the family would gather every year for vacations. It’s beautiful in the northeast and there were endless opportunities for us to use our imaginations and go on adventures.

Best quality others notice

I think people notice that I’m a person of integrity – I’m dependable, loyal, and care about doing the right thing.

It changes every time I watch a movie I love and rabbit-hole the director.

Africa – it’s been my lifelong dream to go on safari
