I have developed award-winning feature films, screenplays, and documentaries with nearly fifteen years of experience as a writer, director, and producer. In 2021, I made my directorial debut with a whodunnit mystery feature film called Hayseed. In 2010, I joined Coalition Films and served as a creative executive. During my tenure, I traveled with director Jeremy Xido (Cabula6) and Coalition Films to Angola, Africa, to produce the feature-length documentary titled Death Metal Angola. The film first gained attention at DOC NYC, New York's premier documentary festival, and went on to play at over sixty festivals around the world. The Vladar Company acquired Death Metal Angola, and it had a theatrical release in New York and Los Angeles. In 2014, I co-produced The Preppie Connection, which premiered at the Hamptons International Film Festival and was released by IFC Films. The film was successful in recouping its investment and now is in overages. Previously, I was an associate producer for CliffsNotes Films, an interactive series of animated short films based on the CliffsNotes study guides—Mark Burnett (Survivor, Shark Tank) produced the series. CliffsNotes received nominations for Best Animated Web Series, Best Interactive Social Media Experience at IAWTV Awards, and Best Branded Entertainment at The Streamy's. My screenplay, Dirty Hands, was selected as a finalist in the New Orleans Film Festival 2019 Screenplay Competition. Also, Dirty Hands was a top ten finalist in the 2019 Stage32 "New Blood" competition. My script for Hayseed was Second Rounder at the 2020 Austin Film Festival and a finalist at the 2020 Rhode Island International and 2021 Atlanta Film Festivals. For nearly ten years, I worked with the tremendously talented screenwriters Ashley Rudden and Joseph Castelo, honing my skills as a writer. Together, we wrote UPSTATE, a crime-thriller that Park Pictures optioned. I live in Brooklyn with his wife, Melissa, and our twin sons.
