Storytelling is my tool to share everyday moments, showcase unfamiliar cultures and to battle division and differences with truth and empathy for others. However, I also perceive the world through the lens of a geographer and I’m fascinated by how economic, political and cultural structures affect the autonomy of individuals and societies. It’s no wonder why I’m drawn to themes such as immigration, universal healthcare, climate change, environmental justice, human rights and access to education. When I’m not envisioning a better world, you can find me learning a new language, climbing trees, playing a classic rock song or letting loose on the dance floor.

I have loved every kind of media since I was young. Movies, TV Shows, Video Games, Music, I ate it all up like a hungry man at an all-you-can-eat buffet. I am fascinated with the way stories can evoke reactions from people. Everything from laughter, to sadness, to fear, to anger, can be brought out by something that someone is watching and all I want to do is create things that bring these emotions to the surface. I pride myself on having a unique sense of style and flavor that will make people say "Wow, never seen that before". I strive every day to create my own voice to separate my works from the rest of the crowd and am always looking for feedback from superiors and co-workers alike so that I can make my works the best they can be. I am big on taking criticism as I believe the only way to get better is to be told what is and what isn't working. I have a lot of experience editing video and sound for various projects and have written many scripts that have received much praise. I have also written for independent films that are currently in production and have gotten great feedback from those who hired me. I always put just as much passion in to the projects I am hired to write as I do with something I come up with myself. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

I am a director, producer, shooter and editor with experience in both editorial and branded content.

I worked on have been OCEAN WARRIORS (executively produced by Robert Redford) which traced activists, journalists and scientists working to fight poachers and organized crime in oceans across the globe, HBO’s CLASS DIVIDE which looked at NYC’s gentrification and growing inequality through the microcosm of one city block, and Emmy-nominated docu-seris FREEWAY: CRACK IN THE SYSTEM. Over the past several years, I have produced and directed branded content for companies such as JetBlue, Samsung, Google, Ballast Point and many others. My work has been seen by millions.

I've got one simple belief that drives my personal and professional life: people need connections and the best ones come from communication that’s real and simple. A communicator to the core, all work and no play wouldn't really bother me, but I have my fun too: I love hanging out with my wife and three sons whether at home or on the road. We're all Disney fanatics who visit Disney Parks annually. I'm an amateur chef who spent this summer building a traditional brick pizza oven in my backyard. And like any real professional at a video production company, I'm an avid fan of watching movies. The project I'm currently most excited about is Finding Hygge, the first feature-length documentary film our team at 12 Stars Media has produced. It's a journey to find the real meaning of the Danish word hygge, through a glimpse into the lives of the happiest people on the planet.
