Inspiration through filmmaking.

Finding a receptive audience

Although I always produce my short films for the sheer joy of the creative process and the memories they preserve, every once in a while my films gets noticed—and the fun begins. Very few things in filmmaking are as satisfying as when your work is recognized and appreciated at such a high level, and by such a diverse audience.

I've done interviews with national media publications, had conversations on live! TV in British Columbia, and even had one of my videos end up on Youtube's Trending Page. My work has been shared by, or used in content produced by, global travel companies, national toursim bureaus, world-class resorts, award-winning restaurants, and more.

With over a half-million views across platforms, and thousands of shares, it's incredible knowing that my work has found such a receptive audience, and inspired thousands of like-minded travel enthusiasts!
