ABOUT ME

I’m someone who dives in headfirst—whether it’s a creative project, business challenge, or personal calling. I thrive on building genuine connections with people from all walks of life and find deep purpose in uplifting others along their journey. For me, that’s the greatest reward of all.

Ask my friends and family, and they’ll tell you: I don’t believe in half-measures. I’ve always pushed past limits to pursue excellence, not comfort. I take pride in doing things the right way—with integrity, discipline, and relentless drive.

The Ra Film Company was born in 2020, in the wake of a deep personal loss. Just two months after marrying my wife, she lost her father in a tragic accident. That moment shifted everything. I was working as a firefighter/paramedic, but I knew I needed to create something that would allow me to support my wife through healing—and build a life that gave could sustain both of us. What started as a side passion in photography and videography became so much more. The Ra Film Company grew into a business that changed the direction of our lives.

I’ve always believed in treating others how I’d want to be treated. That belief is the foundation of everything I do and serving clients with the same care, attention, and quality I’d expect myself. This business is more than a job; it’s my passion, my legacy, and a platform to serve others with excellence. It is what changed the trajectory of my life and a means of supporting my family through supporting others.
