I'm a Brooklyn-based filmmaker working as a director, producer, and editor with 12+ years building and scaling documentary, branded, and live music content across broadcast and digital platforms.

My latest film Curls was an official selection at the Cleveland International Film Festival and St. Louis International Film Festival — both Academy Award®-qualifying — as well as the NY Latino Film Festival. My short film Teenage Jesus was a Daily Short Pick at Film Shortage and my work has been featured on Huffington Post Comedy.

I'm currently in production on Pigeon People, a feature documentary about New York City's pigeon keepers — the loyalty, the obsession, and the thin line between care and control.

Commercially, I've worked with VOX Media, Thrillist, PayPal, Morgan Stanley, Zillow, NewYork–Presbyterian, and Restoration Hardware. At Artists Den Entertainment, I served as Lead Editor and Production Manager for six seasons on Live From My Den, a music performance series featured on Variety.
