I am a multiple awar-winning (204) director/dp with client and agency experience for major brands . My journey began amidst the serene landscapes of the Midwest, where my childhood pursuits of drawing, painting, and music eventually led me to the captivating realm of filmmaking. Inspired by luminaries such as Spielberg, the Coen Brothers, and Scorsese, I embarked on a relentless pursuit of excellence in storytelling. From humble beginnings on the directing team in Prince's "Sign O' the Times," I quickly found myself drawn into the electrifying energy of filmmaking. As I honed my craft through every role on set, from casting coordinator to camera operator, my passion for this art form only deepened. Guided by gifted mentors, I was fueled by a thirst for knowledge, I navigated the intricate world of commercial production, collaborating with renowned brands like Target, NASCAR, Pepsi, and Ford. These experiences not only sharpened my directorial skills but also instilled in me a profound appreciation for the collaborative nature of filmmaking. Throughout my career, I have spearheaded a diverse array of projects, ranging from high-budget spectacles in 70MM film to intimate character studies with hardly a budget. Whether it's a pulse-pounding action thriller, poignant Vietnam War biopic discovering PTSD, or other projects I have my mitts on, my commitment to authenticity and storytelling excellence remains unwavering. From the triumphant resurrection of Prince's lost treasures of “Glam Slam Live” to the accolades garnered by festival darlings like "Innocent", God's Helper", "Three Days Gone: Based on the Life of Lucas Snow" and "Exorcism Diaries", my body of work reflects a relentless pursuit of artistic innovation and creative integrity. With hundreds of festival honors to my name, I am humbled by the recognition and driven by the pursuit of cinematic excellence.
