Norfolk Southern Railway
For three years, I have worked extensively with Norfolk Southern, one of North America's six major Class-1 railroads and a Fortune 500 company. During my time with them, I have taken on various roles, including Director, Director of Photography, Drone Operator, Sound Recordist, Photographer, Graphics Editor, Photo Editor, and Video Editor.
Below is a small selection of my work with Norfolk Southern, as not all of it is available for public viewing.
