I'm a writer, director, producer, born into the sweltering suburbs of St.Louis, MO, raised on the windy beaches of Cape Cod, MA, now situated in sunny Santa Monica, CA.
After film school in Boston, I started my film career from the very bottom, driving trucks in NYC. I quickly climbed the producing ladder, from coordinator, to PM, to line producer, and eventually to EP at the production company Pomp&Clout where I served for the better part of a decade producing commercials, music videos, documentaries, VR experiences, AR filters, and countless experiments.
All the while I've been writing shorts, pilots and features, falling head over heels for the form and process. I've written scripts placing in the QFs, SFs, and Finals of highly competitive contests such as PAGE, BlueCat, Scriptapalooza, Screencraft, StoryPros, and more. My show "Roundabout"was also picked up for series development by Funny or Die.
In directing I've made a number of narrative and documentary shorts selected by SXSW, on Short of the Week, and Vimeo Staff Picked. My latest film "Noah's Belt" was made in Unreal Engine via Mega Grant from Epic Games. The film premiered at Leeds in the UK with further publication on Film Shortage, Directors Notes, LBB Film Club, Beyond The Short as well as winning Silver at the 1.4 Awards for Brilliant Filmmaking.
