Earlier this week, I heard the incredible news news that I have been nominated by the NATAS Heartland Chapter for two Regional Emmy Awards!

The first is a Heartland Emmy Nomination for Lighting - this was for my work in the project “Get Your Edge Back” with Director Lane Mathis. We shot this in Boulder Colorado, and I’ll always remember how fast-paced and satisfying it was to work on it together.

The second nomination is for a short documentary with Producer/Director Rob Ramos, which is selected for the “Student Production: Short Form Non-Fiction”. Rob is always stellar to work with and this was another great production to collaborate on. We have since shot a second installment in cooperation with a company based in Spain!

Any creative will understand how grateful and happy I am to hear the news and I’d like to take a moment to give a special thanks to Kyle Steinbrinck, Brian Steward, Roger Carter, Tony Pfau, John Goerner, and everybody who has mentored me over the years.
