ABOUT ME
Everyone has a story to tell.
As an award-winning filmmaker and videographer based out of Derry, NH, I’ve been passionate about telling meaningful stories my whole life, being involved with filmmaking and screenwriting since I was 17 years old. After graduating high school at the top of my class in 2019, I pursued a Business Communications major at Manchester Community College, graduating Summa Cum Laude with an A.S. in 2022.
I was first able to pursue production professionally through the One Church Residency Program, where I learned technical skills including camera operation, lighting, and editing. Additionally, I lead and trained teams by producing their in-person worship services. In 2023, I transitioned to Associate Online Producer, where I was a content creator for their YouTube channel, especially YouTube Shorts from the online services. These grew the channel from under 2000 subscribers in January 2023 to over 18,000 by the time I moved on from One Church in April 2024.
Since then, I have been a freelancer for set productions and videography. Some examples include being a second shooter for over 2 dozen weddings with Precision Films, a production assistant on commercials with Spires Creative Video, and various crew roles in numerous film and TV projects, most notably Mars Hill Bait and Ammo (dir. Alfred Thomas Catalfo), Dissection Day (dir. Rachel Thomas-Medwid), and The Canon of Grimward (dir. Xavier Garcia).
I have also directed my own film projects throughout the years. In 2022 and 2023, I led teams for the Four Points Film Project, a global competition in which filmmakers create a short film in 77 hours or less. The second film, Just Wait, made it to the final round of their Audience Choice Awards, advancing with 18 out of the 93 films submitted. It had a year-long festival run in 2024, appearing at Flicks on Tap: A Brews and Views Festival and the Shawna Shea Film Festival, receiving a nomination for the latter.
My most recent film, A Simple Fix, a surrealist dramedy about a life-changing tech support call, has been selected into 9 film festivals across the United States. It has received two nominations from the Shawna Shea Film Festival and the Screaming Ostrich International Film Festival, and two wins from the Massachusetts Independent Film Festival and The Creative Guts Short Film Festival.
Equipped with my expertise in the production field and a drive to tell stories that make an impact, I look forward to where my story leads me next.
Daniel was part of my production team for about 2 years. He is always punctual and prepared. He works hard and passionately on what he believes in. He pays close attention to details and communicates, clearly and passionately, with all those he works with. I can confidently recommend working with him for your video projects.
