Over the past 5 years, my work as a collegiate sports videographer has been recognized by the Sports Video Group College Sports Media Awards (SVG CSMA), a leading organization honoring excellence in sports media production. Competing in the Collegiate Student–Championship division, I’ve had the honor of being nominated multiple times across several categories, including Outstanding Social Media Video, Outstanding In-Venue Video, and Outstanding Cinematic Recap.
What began in 2023 with a nomination for my UCSB Women in Sports piece has grown into a string of recognized projects, including award-winning work like the 2024 UCSB Swim Season Video and the 2024 UCSB Men’s Soccer Season Intro Video.
Each project reflects a commitment to storytelling, emotion, and the spirit of collegiate athletics. I'm proud to share this journey of growth and recognition—with a special thanks to UCSB, who featured my achievements in two published articles, available below.
