Industry Experience

Media & Entertainment, Education
    paper The Birder - Feature Film

    I directed and co-wrote this feature comedy about a mild-mannered birdwatcher who sets out to reclaim his beloved park from a rival. Starring Tom Cavanagh (The Flash), Fred Willard (Best in Show), and Academy Award nominee Graham Greene (Dances with Wolves), The Birder blends quirky humor with heartfelt character moments. The film played at festivals around the world and was acquired for U.S. distribution by Sony Home Entertainment.

    paper Love in the Age of Like - Short

    I directed, produced, and edited this light-hearted fictional short that takes a fun, stylish look at love and dating in the digital age. With a playful tone and cinematic visuals, the film explores how technology and social media shape modern relationships. Love in the Age of Like screened at multiple film festivals and was broadcast nationally on Bell Media.

    paper Century 21 - First Home

    I produced and directed this cinematic spot for Century 21, capturing the emotional journey of buying your first home. Told through powerful visuals and a warm, human-centered approach, the story reflects the excitement, uncertainty, and joy that come with finding a place to call your own.

    The commercial emphasizes storytelling over sales, using a grounded, authentic tone to connect with viewers and highlight Century 21’s role in turning dreams of homeownership into reality.

    paper Orange France – "Saxo Guy" (Digital Christmas Campaign)

    I directed Saxo Guy as part of Orange France’s festive digital Christmas campaign (#supernoel) one of 11 short-form videos produced in collaboration with Publicis Groupe. This spot leaned into humor and playful visuals to bring joy and energy to the holiday season, aligning with Orange’s brand voice while standing out as a fun and memorable piece of digital content.

    The project showcased my ability to blend comedic timing with visual storytelling, creating engaging content that resonated with audiences across social and digital platforms.

    paper Coca-Cola - Together

    I produced and directed Together, a Coca-Cola spec commercial created with a focus on the Latin American audience. The spot delivers a hopeful, emotionally driven message that celebrates the power of unity, culture, and belief in one’s dreams.

    Through strong visual storytelling and a vibrant, cinematic style, the commercial reinforces Coca-Cola’s brand ethos: that dreams are achievable when we come together. The piece was designed to inspire and uplift, while authentically reflecting the spirit and resilience of the community it represents.

    paper Eastern Bank - Full Circle

    I produced and directed this branded commercial for Eastern Bank, using storytelling*to create an emotional connection around a topic not typically seen as heartfelt - safe deposit boxes. The challenge was to craft a narrative that resonated with viewers, showcasing how these boxes hold more than valuables; they hold the stories and memories that matter most.

    The piece combines cinematic visuals with authentic, human moments to bring Eastern Bank’s values of trust, community, and care to life.
