event recap
Grace Weber's Music Lab
2019-Present
After my video internship with non-profit Radio Milwaukee in 2019, I continued working with them by becoming the regular videographer and editor for their program Grace Weber's Music Lab, which is a monthly music and arts education program and talent accelerator for Greater Milwaukee area high school students. I love supporting this program, because it combines my love of music and passion for supporting local talent.
event recap
Goblin King Masquerade Ball
2023
I began working with Awkward Nerd Events (ANE) in 2023, photographing a Barbie-themed pop-up bar that they hosted in Bay View to celebrate the release of the movie Barbie. I was so excited when ANE invited me back to film and edit their Goblin King Masquerade Ball, a special two-night event that immersed guests into the world of Labyrinth.
book promo
Bunyan and Henry by Mark Cecil
2023
At the end of 2020, I joined the volunteer organization A Mighty Blaze, condensing many hours of their Zoom videos down to 3-minute promos for their weekly interviews with authors. Through this volunteership, I was able to connect with authors like Mark, who later contacted me about editing a promotional video for his upcoming book.

by Stephen Kiernan
2023
Another nice connection made through A Mighty Blaze! Using archival images and photos provided by the author, I edited six short book trailers, formatted for social media, to promote the release of The Glass Chateau by Stephen Kiernan.

Amano Pan

My passion for supporting local talent and restaurants prompted me to do pro-bono video work for Edgar Cuarezma's pop-up bakery "Amano Pan" and Barbara Cerda's non-profit project "Barby the Book Fairy." (below)

Barby the Book Fairy
2021
When I learned about Barby the Book Fairy in mid-2020, I immediately contacted Barby to see if I could help spread the word of her mission. The result is this mini-doc.
Barbara Cerda distributes books to Free Little Libraries in her neighborhood of Lincoln Village, a low-income area of Milwaukee, under the name "Barby the Book Fairy." She focuses on sharing diverse literature that a variety of readers can relate to, and she does it with the help of her daughters, and with the help of others in communities around Milwaukee. As of 2023, she has opened a bookstore with her sister called La Revo Books.

SistaStrings joined Nickel and Rose for a concert at Anodyne, and I was happy to capture songs from both of their performances.

concert recap
Eaux Claires Music Festival
2016
Eaux Claires (2015) was the first music festival I'd attended, and whether because it was my first experience or because it was the first year of the festival, it was enchanting and a very special experience. I came back in 2016 and captured as much of the (for lack of a better phrase) ~good vibes~ as possible.
