Creating gives me life
I’ve been making films since 1995 when I first picked up the camera and hit record.
Since then I’ve taken part in co-producing countless creative projects with hundreds of collaborators and even some popular companies, like Apple, Disney, Google, and Nintendo.
My work spans animations, art installations, commercials, documentaries, drawing and illustration, feature films and shorts, guided meditation, IT support for the utterly confused, live events and streams, music videos, photography, spontaneous outbursts of energy, and websites.
I have lived in Philadelphia, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Los Angeles again, San Francisco, and Reno.
I am married with one child, a kitten named Luna. She keeps me in line.

In the wild
I consider myself a free person and a freethinker, though oftentimes, and currently, I find myself with a “home base”—a place other free hands and minds have gathered to to create collaborative magic.
