I take people places they can't reach.

The Backstory

I've been doing this since I was a teenager. At 17 I was in Thailand filming diving students underwater and turning around edits the same day. That became a career - promotional films, tourism content, adventure brands. I got good at giving people that emotional response to a place - not just showing it, but making them feel something.

In 2020 I started experimenting with immersive video and couldn't stop. I spent three years living in a motorhome, filming across New Zealand, trying to figure out how to make someone feel like they were actually standing somewhere.

When Apple launched Vision Pro, I flew to LA to get one on day one. My footage wouldn't play on it, so I figured out how to build an app - something I'd never done before. Six weeks later I had something that worked. A year after that, Apple named it App of the Year.

The app's use in mental health research at the University of Michigan was covered by CBS Detroit, and footage from the app has contributed to BBC Click. Researchers at the University of Michigan are studying how immersive video affects wellbeing, and Oxford University is recruiting for a study on the same question.

I'm still working on the same problem I started with at 17: how do you make someone feel like they're really there? And a belief that this technology can do more than entertain - it can heal, educate, and connect.
