I started Rising Night Productions in 2022, but I’ve been in the film and video business my entire career. I began my career in project management, and as a result I bring strong organizational skills to everything I do. That matters because video production is a process that involves a thousand little details. An experienced and organized producer can handle those details for you. I pride myself on making the video production process as seamless and worry-free for my clients as possible. Think of me like a great travel agent. If I do my job well, you get to enjoy the vacation without handling any of the annoying logistics.

My favorite use of video is to deliver important information in an enjoyable and memorable way. From short, animated explainer videos to documentary style pieces to educational series, I take joy in diving deep into your subject and finding ways to keep your audience engaged. I’m thrilled when someone watches a video I’ve produced and feels like they’ve learned something or found a solution to a problem.

Video is an incredibly powerful communication tool, and I love finding new ways to use it with my clients. I’m grateful to be a part of the fantastic production community in the Washington, D.C. area and I love connecting with people through my work. I hope that every client I work with grows to trust me as an indispensable creative partner.
