Freelance Editor

Silver Spring Media Arts (non-Profit)

From start to finish, Cameron edited a 15 minute short documentary on the Redskins Glory days (82-92).  The team at this time brought together the DC community and Cameron helped tell this story with his eye for story-telling through editing. Through his use of motion graphics and After Effects, Cameron ramped up the production value of this great story.

Bright Lights and Promises (Feature)

Cameron was hired to do the finishing touches on this feature length film. He also cut the 2 minute trailer so that the director could shop it around to different festivals. "Bright Lights and Promises" was just accepted into the New York Independent Film Festival.

Producer/Editor

The Great Power Race

Real quick turnaround with some amazing results. We were asked to make a less than 2 minute video that would mark the beginning of a Great Power Race between India, China, and the U.S. This was a great opportunity to flex my DP skills and make a quick, powerful edit. It was a very rewarding experience to see our clients extremely moved by our hard work.

After almost a year of work, I’m excited to share a story we created with Volkswagen—documenting the restoration of the VW bus from the now-iconic AP photo that was destroyed in the Palisades Fire.

I had the chance to collaborate with an incredible team at Volkswagen and meet many of the people whose lives were deeply affected by those fires. Their experiences, strength, and generosity made this a powerful story to tell, and I’m grateful we were trusted with it.

If you’re heading to the LA Auto Show this weekend, swing by and check out the restored '76 bus "Azul" in person. It looks great in the video but is even more meaningful up close. #vw #magicbus

I’m a creative director working at the intersection of brand, product, and sensory emotion. 

For over 20 years, I’ve partnered with visionary teams to design experiences and identities that don’t just function, but resonate. My focus is on work that holds emotional weight, builds cultural relevance, and feels as true as it looks.

I lead projects through Brutally Human, my imprint, and Métisse, a studio dedicated to multi-sensory branding and deeper forms of connection between brands and people. I have designed and launched multiple successful products, such as Sentinotes - a mental health tracker for team leaders and families. 

When I’m not working, I’m teaching, traveling, or designing the next thing that won’t leave me alone ( currently it is The Department of Time project that helps you redesign your relationship with time ).

I take on a small number of collaborations each year with teams who want to build with intention, not urgency. If that’s you, I’d love to talk.

So many founders on LinkedIn speak with absolute authority on design without a body of work to justify the confidence. Every week there’s another post claiming they’ve reviewed “hundreds” of applicants and only found 1-2 good ones, another hot take declaring UX “dead,” or another proclamation that AI prototyping now replaces design entirely.

Take these proclamations lightly. None of them are industry truths. They’re personal opinions disguised as statistics.

What one founder prefers, or misunderstands, does not represent the design field at large. You’ll notice that these sweeping statements rarely come from Fortune 500 companies, established global studios, or organizations that actually invest in design excellence. 

They mostly come from early-stage SaaS founders who, to be blunt, have not yet mastered hiring or design.

Context matters. Experience matters. And loud opinions are not the same as expertise.
