Being a very curious person, my interests have been quite broad. From research (BFA New Media '16, MFA Documentary Media '19) to software skills, I've been pulled a number of directions. I've realized how well this has served me as a collaborator. Being able to hear someone's biggest ideas and answer with "I think we can make that happen" has lead to some of my most successful projects.

Once we've had a conversation where I try to soak up as much as I can, I spend a fair amount of time researching, testing, and creating a first version. I always find it better to discuss something that exists on a first round so we can be as yes/no about decisions rather that circling around the point. Once we have a solid version together, I try to keep edits coming as quick as possible. I believe people have good instincts and I want to keep feedback reflexive. I also feel that ambitious deadlines are incredibly helpful to the success of a work; the more efficient we are in finding those small areas that can have a large overall impact, the better a project turns out.
