I’ve worked with EA for over a year now as a Senior Video Editor, primarily with the Sims team, working with capture and creative leads to develop fun new things to do in our major trailers and even some in-game content. I’ve also been able to work on a special EA Sports campaign, using my background in documentary work to setting the tone for our Behind The Cover series
-
At F&F, I was the Senior Film Director, leading ethnographic documentaries from concept to final edit with A-list clients, travelling the world while recruiting and managing teams of videographers remotely, using my creative direction, art direction, videography, animation and interviewing skills over a variety of content types including promos, animated explainers, documentaries and written pieces as well.
-
At National Public Relations, I was the in-house videographer, communicating directly with clients over a broad range of project types, creating a wide variety of content including union spots, docu-style pieces, animated explainers and event coverage from pitch to completion.
-
For over 10 years, I’ve worked as a freelance creative, directing music videos, docu-style pieces, wedding videos and even doing Creative Direction work for a new local health brand
I’ve been at this for a good while.
Over my 8+ years as a professional creative, I’ve had the pleasure to work with Apple, Amazon, Bacardi, Converse, Coors, Etsy, Electronic Arts, Ford, Gatorade, Lincoln, Lululemon, Meta, Nike, Nestle, Porsche, Taco Bell, Walmart, WestJet and many more!
Through these clients, I’ve had the opportunity to bring creative visions to life by executing scripted and non-scripted projects, shooting/editing/producing/directing ethnographic documentaries, explainers, social campaigns, trailers and video pieces, bringing a human touch to every element of my work.
These last few years, I’ve had the opportunity not just to work around the world but to present my work in Chicago at the EPIC 2023 Ethnography conference and across the U.S. and Canada at screening events.
While a lot of my work has been geared toward private ethnographic research and internal communications, I also have a number of public facing projects I just love to talk about, check them out below!
EA SPORTS: BEHIND THE COVER (2025)
Editorial Lead / Senior Video Editor
While working at EA, I was asked to hop on a call with one of our great EA Sports Creative Directors who wanted me to use my background in documentary work to take BTS footage of upcoming EA Sports cover shoots and bring them to life.
I had the pleasure of going through days worth of footage for upcoming F1, College Football and Madden cover shoots to tell three distinct stories, bringing my experience together with EA Sports’ signature no-holds-barred style.
The experience was an absolute pleasure, and while I wasn’t available to complete the suite of titles, I’m thrilled that I got to set the tone with the first three. While the F1 video featured Lewis Hamilton, I must say these two were my favourites.
WASTED (2024)
Creative Director, Producer, Researcher, Videographer
This is my latest public documentary and a passion project. Working in research had me talking with young people in Tokyo, Sao Paulo, L.A., Chicago, New York, Toronto and more, making documentaries exploring youth culture.
For WASTED I spent 3 months following multiple individuals in the creative scene in Vancouver, exploring how the youth are responding to the cost of living crisis and the onslaught of bad-faith criticism they get from the media.
The documentary has been screened to massive audiences throughout North America and has been met with everything from enraged confusion to tears and reckoning - I hope you land on the latter.
The Sims 4 (2025)
Senior Video Editor
In a little over a year I’ve had the opportunity to work on a bunch of high-visibility Sims content from reveal trailers to social media pieces, but this one is easily the most fun.
Working collaboratively with the creative and capture team provided a number of opportunities for me to try out some of my own ideas, getting buy-in from team members and stakeholders to approach particular sequences differently, all with the aim of evoking the summer-camp energy around the content.
In particular, I’m proud of the rock, paper, scissors stand-off sequence which I was able to add in on the last round, but in general this project was a major highlight of my time working on the Sims team.
F&F Explainer (2024)
Creative Director, Producer, Animator/V.O.
This animated explainer was created to bring to life Further&Further’s mission statement and ethos, re-introducing our visual style and zine-like aesthetic.
The only catch was that I had a week to go from concept to completion and I couldn’t be happier with the result.
Like many F&F projects, I had full control of creative direction, allowing me to play with the mixed media style I deeply enjoy, while showing what I can do with a few days of production time.
The Motherload (2022)
Director, Producer, Editor
The goal of this project was to shine a light on how the pandemic affected mothers in North America. Due to the lockdowns, I directed each of the participants through self-recording their B-Roll.
It was such a hit in the visual ethnography world, I was invited to present it at EPIC 2023 and I’m very proud to say that multiple agencies/organizations who saw it told us it inspired them to rethink their maternity leave policies.
Thanks again
