What I do
I specialize in bringing a cinematic yet unobtrusive approach to documentary films, non-scripted television and branded campaigns. The bulk of my career has been spent shooting with lean crews or as a one man band, and I’m comfortable working as a DP, directing, or juggling multiple hats as is often the case.
I own a complete Sony FX6 camera package w/ a full range of Sony zooms, Leica primes and a Sennheiser audio kit. I’m also a Part 107 FAA certified drone pilot and Mavic 3 Cine owner/operator. I have a variety of camera and lighting packages available to be curtailed to each project accordingly.
WHO I AM
I grew up in Puerto Rico and majored in film at UC Santa Cruz. I’ve worked on a variety of documentaries, unscripted television, and branded campaigns both as a cinematographer and director. In 2024 I won a Primetime Emmy Award for cinematography for my work on National Geographic’s “Life Below Zero.” My 2016 feature film Pussywillow Dirtbags won “Best Locally Produced Work” at the Santa Cruz film festival. On my free time I enjoy surfing and spending time with my wife and daughter.
