At Stept Studios, I assisted on edits for commercial advertising campaigns and documentary films, shot and edited behind-the-scenes pieces of production, and did on set photography. My role included assisting lead editors with their needs such as pulling selects, music selection, and managing media, as well as creating cuts of projects for both in-house and client use. From helping in post to getting out on set, Stept has provided me with an amazing opportunity to work alongside accomplished directors, editors, and DPs to take my skills to the next level.

As part of UNH Social Media team shooting and editing video for social media accounts, I created concepts, shot, and edited projects and assisted on larger commercial shoots to further the UNH brand. A highlight of this role was in May of 2020, where I directed, produced, shot, and edited UNH's Graduation recognition for my own Class of 2020 during COVID-19. The lead piece in UNH's virtual commencement, the 3 minute video was viewed over 50,000 times across Instagram and Facebook.

As a Junior Olympic Gymnast, I walked on to the D1 UNH Gymnastics team in 2016. Sophomore year, I retired from gymnastics due to injury and was recruited to the D1 Swim and Dive Team as a springboard diver with no prior experience. I learned to dive, and that year placed top 10 at the conference championships, helping the Wildcats to our 7th America East Championship and earning an athletic scholarship. In subsequent years, I secured multiple 1st place titles and helped secure another America East Championship for UNH. Graduating in 2020, I made the America East Academic Honor Roll 3x, and graduated with America East Presidential Scholar Athlete Honors.

Shot, edited, and distributed video content across sports at UNH, including intro videos, highlight videos, interviews, short documentaries, and social media promotions. Primarily shooting in a live sports environment, this self-taught role was the first of its kind for a student at UNH.
