Who I Am
I’m a New York and LA - based creative director + director with a specialty in video development, making brand-aligned solutions that you actually want to watch. My goal is to stop the scroll and tell some damn good stories after you do. Currently, I’m utilizing my diverse background in documentary and engaging short form content to create specialized edutainment for children. Adults can’t have all the fun.
Why You Should Work with Me
Creating impactful branded content has gotten harder in a world where savvy consumers are beginning to resent the idea they’re being “sold to.” It’s become a balancing act between a client’s commercial asks and budget constraints, and the consumer’s demand for authenticity. A balancing act I’ve mastered. My favorite part of the job is when people tell me I can’t do something and then I show them - with captivating visuals and succinct explanation - that I can.
My portfolio includes high-level clients like Chase, Toyota, Target, Wells Fargo, Ralph Lauren, Cartier, Nespresso, Moët Hennessey and Anheuser-Busch. And my long form content can be seen on A&E, Esquire, OWN, Food Network, Cooking Channel and DAZN, spanning genres from deeply embedded documentaries to long-standing in-studio series.
But most importantly, people like me.
