About

I’m a creative, imaginative Cannes Lion-winning Director, Cinematographer, Editor, and Writer. I’m a visual storyteller who’s concepted, written, directed, shot and edited campaigns for some of the most successful agencies and largest companies in the world. I’ve also written and directed award-winning, viral music videos, viral comedy shorts, documentaries and so much more. I’m as comfortable working as a one-man team (shooting, directing & editing) as I am overseeing a crew of a hundred.

I bring a hands-on, collaborative approach to every project, from concept to final delivery, and I’ve been fortunate to work across commercials, documentaries, music videos, and live performances for global brands and top studios.
