I currently teach at a college in New York City, sharing my passion for storytelling and visual craft with the next generation of filmmakers.

I am a writer, director, producer, and editor working across film and television. I’ve helmed two Emmy-nominated feature documentaries, with a third distributed nationally via PBS. My 2024 short doc has more than 1 million views on YouTube and earned two Telly Awards.

For seven years, I led the creative and production process on multiple award-winning interview-style television shows—writing, directing, and delivering entire seasons from start to finish.

My work spans film festivals, television, and streaming platforms including Amazon Prime, Tubi, Vimeo, Cineverse, Stash on YouTube, Typhoon on Demand, Filmocracy, The Movie Studio, Rlaxx TV, Popsy on Plex, and Xumo.

Beyond long-form projects, I have created short fiction and nonfiction films, commercials, PSAs, and other media content.
