I have worked on big budget features (i.e. “About Schmidt,” “Lucky”) as well as independent films, and have produced commercials, branded content, and documentaries in various markets around the U.S. for clients such as The Kroger Co., Procter & Gamble, and Sprint. I have more than 20+ years of commercial production experience. As a producer / filmmaker, I have the ability to keep everything on task and under budget while surpassing expectations. I excel at the ability to recognize talent and lead a successful team.

We were asked to pitch an idea to bring awareness to how the Heat Aid Fund has helped and aided certain individuals in the community. This piece highlighted how the fund helped Tillmesha, a single mother of 3, get back on her feet.
I met the marketing director of Open Harvest at a banquet for the ethical treatment of animals. We started chatting and she mentioned she wanted to create a brand story for the coop. They didn't have much money, but I was able to put a team together and pull it off within their budget. We did the writing, creative, filming, editing, post and everything in between. It's a beautiful brand video.
