While I was watching the 2024 Paris Olympics, I spotted a photographer using a wheelchair and immediately felt a connection—here was another quad working on the world stage in a creative field.
As a fellow quad with a camera rig, I reached to see if he’d want to chat about his experience. We connected over the practical stuff: how he rigs his camera setup, the adaptations that make it all work, and that shared understanding of what it means to pursue something you're passionate about.
It was refreshing to talk shop with someone who gets both the technical challenges and the pure satisfaction of doing work you love.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
