About

A little bit about me...

As a second-generation Honduran-American narrative cinematographer, my work delves into the complexity of human experience, particularly the interplay between strength and vulnerability. Through careful framing and lighting, I aim to convey characters' inner struggles and motivations, revealing the contradictions between their desires and the external world. Stories that resonate with me are those that showcase characters' raw fortitude, highlighting their journey of overcoming challenges. My unexpected journey into film reflects the unpredictable nature of life, where chance occurrences can profoundly impact our paths. Through my collaborations, I seek to show others that their humanity is acknowledged and valued, fostering a sense of connection and understanding.

I was born in Miami, earned an MFA in Cinematography from Brooklyn College in New York City, and I enjoy photography.
