So this is me…

I regularly work as a director, editor, cinematographer, designer, musician, audio recordist, scriptwriter, photographer, and drone pilot. Jack of all trades, master of knowing when to hire a subcontractor. I put “digital content producer” on my business cards to keep things simple.

I graduated from the University of Southern California’s TV and Film Production program in 2011 and was a participant in IDFA’s DocLab Academy, and I’ve been making videos, podcasts, and interactive projects ever since.

My work has been featured in The Atlantic, the Washington Post, Politico, the Chicago Tribune, Polygon, and public radio stations across the country. I’ve had the privilege of creating pieces for clients including Cards Against Humanity, Johnson & Johnson, Buzzfeed, DePaul University, the University of Chicago, and the National Immigrant Justice Center.

In addition to the work featured here, I’ve worked as a folk musician, actor, circus artist, board-game writer, and puppeteer. The Chicago Tribune once called me “charming,” and I’ve put that on my dating profiles ever since.
