I'm a producer, director, and storyteller who likes making complicated things feel simple.

 

For more than 20 years, I've worked across documentary, commercial, branded, social, and animation—leading teams, directing talent, shaping stories, and bringing productions across the finish line. I'm at my best when I can bring together great people, a strong idea, and the craft needed to make something people actually want to watch.

​

My other passion in life is my wife and four kids. Whether we're playing board games in the basement or having water balloon wars in the backyard, there's usually some kind of adventure going on.

 

Our days are packed, so I rarely get a chance to break out the oils anymore. But when I do, painting is still one of my favorite ways to make art.

​

My faith in Jesus is the most important thing in my life. It shapes the way I approach storytelling, the devotion I bring to my work, and the way I try to live.

 

It's why my wife and I are foster and adoptive parents. It's why we give back to our community. I've been given much; therefore, I have much to give.

 

If you're inspired by my work, let's connect. I love collaborating with like-minded artists who have big ideas and moving stories to tell.
