About

Want to make better travel, adventure & lifestyle videos without overthinking gear or settings? I share practical tips on filming, editing, and using drones β€” all learned through years of trial and error while traveling. I didn’t go to film school or university. I started out as a factory worker who just wanted more. If I can do it, so can you.
