I have loved cameras for as long as I can remember. The idea that a camera could freeze a moment in time felt like something magical.
At the University of Nebraska Lincoln, I started following that curiosity. First renting a camera from the university, then buying my own. I was not thinking about a career. I was just following a feeling that would not leave me alone.
I never considered myself an artist growing up. That did not feel like a real path. What changed everything was realizing that telling stories on camera could be meaningful and sustainable. Once I understood that, I never looked back.
Along the way, I have been fortunate to learn from talented people in this industry. Those relationships shaped how I think about the work and how I approach every project.
I believe businesses and organizations in Nebraska deserve production that can compete at any level. Speakeasy Visuals exists because of that belief.
The name comes from the Prohibition era. Speakeasies were hidden spaces that felt more refined than everything outside their doors. That idea stuck with me. What we make should feel elevated. Like you found something most people walk right past.
I love what I do, and I am proud of the work I get to be a part of.
