A short biography.

---

    

    Born and raised in El Paso, TX - a true child of the desert. Spent long summer days jumping junkyard walls, riding bikes through the sage, and rolling skateboards on pavement hot enough to cook breakfast on. Graduated from Montwood High in 2005, and decided to look for greener pastures. Attended the wonderfully staffed College of Fine Arts at the University of Texas, Austin. Learned from the greats such as Margie Simpson, Tom Druecker, Jason Urban, Lawrence McFarland, Michael Ray Charles, Melissa Miller, and many more. Five years and many long nights later finished with a BFA in Studio Art. Grabbed a couple of bags and moved to Chicago at the end of the summer, 2010. Partnered as cinematographer with director and editor Erin Babbin in 2011 to create the growing production company On The Real Film. 

Currently resides and works in Chicago, IL, USA.
