Vim Pneuma Media is a company that I and David Sizemore started in 2019. As we are both experienced in the freelance filmmaking world, we decided to start a media production company focused on documentary and branding videos, and are available for hire to help individuals and brands enrich their platforms.

Since starting college, I have been working as a freelance videographer, video editor and producer consistently. I have worked on commercials, marketing videos, weddings, music videos, short films, documentaries, and more. This prompted me to found my media production company, Vim Pneuma Media, at the beginning of 2019.
