Headshot

About

Today I focus on color grading and creative direction.

My work leans cinematic but honest—skin first, highlight integrity, and palettes that carry the idea without screaming for attention. I run a calibrated, ACES‑managed pipeline with painless remote review and delivery that doesn’t break on upload.

Tools: DaVinci Resolve Studio, probe‑verified reference display; HDR/SDR capable.
