Getting to know me can be a lot at once...
So let's start with my basics
I make films that focus on the human condition and what it means to be "alive." I focus on a variety of themes from self identity and discovery to dark commentary on society. Universally we all go through that internal journey and need to look in the mirror every now and then.
My goal is to make a film for every genre;
one page at a time.
"To be a director you have to understand how people behave:
which defines character.
To be an editor you have to know visual storytelling
from the perspective of a character.
To be a writer you have to gather experiences to create authentic realities
for your characters to be immersed in."
