Uncovered Covers
In 2023, I launched ‘Uncovered Covers,’ an engaging content series unraveling personal stories behind popular covers of original songs. Through four captivating explainer videos, this series has attracted over 13K organic views and sparked lively discussions about music’s interconnected nature in popular culture.
Uncovered Covers has delved into the musical landscapes of Spoon, Pink Floyd, The Black Keys, Radiohead, The Punch Brothers, Johnny Cash, Nine Inch Nails, and Smog: Hurt, Held, Packt Like Sardines in a Crushed Tin Box, and Weight of Love/Breathe (In the Air)

ABOUT
I’m husband to my lovely wife, Joie, and proud father to our 6 kiddos living here in the midwest. I grew up with free reign of my family’s home video camera, shooting funny movies and animating shorts and stop motion videos with my sisters and friends. I got a few photography certifications right out of high school and then I briefly attended IWU and studied design and alternative process photography there… which I absolutely loved (it being one of the only schools left with fully functioning dark rooms at the time). I worked part-time as an interiors and architectural photographer, traveling regularly and the rest of my professional energy building portrait and video freelancing with a local creative community.
I took a position with a faith-based non-profit as their creative director for 3 years. Then, with the help of a mentor and my dad, simultaneously launched Reformer House (a co-working creative agency) and started work as VP of Productions at Sextons Creek Productions. We grew the productions division over the period of 4 years and then I moved over to Reformer House full-time in 2020. In 2024, I joined the team at Marion Design Co.
I am obsessed with storytelling, still infatuated with film and alternative process photography, and I'm a typography-nerd. Please reach out if you have any questions or could use any more specific examples of work, and thanks for your consideration.
