My Video Discography
Playing around with a camera has always been a passion of mine. As such, I launched a photo and video company in Canada named The 1224 Co. Through understanding client needs, I curated and tailored videos to their needs. Beyond client projects, I also love making travel videos and biographies about people and their journeys.
