Cameron Davis

As a Grand Rapids native, Cameron knew from a young age that he loved capturing stories. He would frequently go to family functions and walk around with a camera and microphone and interview his extended family. As expected, they would become annoyed and frustrated, but that didn’t stop him from being curious. After graduating from Spring Arbor University, Cameron relocated to Fort Wayne, Indiana and worked at Indiana Wesleyan University - developing the school’s video marketing strategy. There he was innovative with fresh ideas for attracting and highlighting students’ why for furthering education as busy working adults. After seven years in the Hoosier state, Cameron returned home to Grand Rapids and aided in developing stories regarding adoption, foster care, and refugee work with Bethany Christian Services. Today, he is Lead Videographer at Cornerstone University where he manages a team of brilliant editors and student workers looking to further their pursuits in storytelling, editing, and videography.

When Cameron is not working, he is spending time with his wife lovely Arika. Together they plan their next adventures, enjoy time with their precious niece and nephew, and volunteer at a host of organizations.
