" As a director, I write with the intention of also editing. There's just so much richness in each of those drafts to pick just one. ” ← A very driven, naive-me often said.
That quote used to be the bulk of this web bio however after many years working as a full-time filmmaker, I’ve come to deeply value collaboration over wearing all the hats. In my current opinion, the filmic puzzle-making process is far (1) richer (2) less isolating (3) stronger of a final result when shared with other curious, empathetic storytellers.
On this site, you’ll find a collection of projects I’ve had the pleasure of crafting as writer, director, editor and teammate.
Thanks for stopping by!
All muh best,

Attended two stunning screenings at two historic cinemas: the Aero Theatre and The Los Angeles Theatre (alongside the equally historic Unarius Space Cad) for this immensely collaborative project.
