I am a creator through and through. If I am not working on a production I am writing, painting, or doodling in the margins. From founding and running a small production company to working with brands such as Nike and the Michael Jordan Company, I spend most of my time working on improving my skill set and work catalogue. Wearing many hats within my own production company I was able to Direct, Produce, Edit and sometimes shoot a lot of different projects. From shooting a halftime video for Fallout Boy on their world tour to Directing multiple music videos and commercials for Disney and FCB-X, I can confidently say I've seen both sides of the digital video spectrum.
