About Me
I have over 14 years of experience as an artist in the entertainment industry developing a unique brand of innovative video, audio, and interactive storytelling. My work has been featured on Adult Swim, Audible, Twitch, IFC, Super Deluxe, MTV, TBS and more.

I am currently offering executive producer services to creators—developing pitches, packaging treatments and working closely with creators to shape their ideas into solid IP.

Specializing in outside-the-box storytelling, I empower creators to hold on to the integrity of their vision, while helping them navigate what can be a tumultuous and frustrating industry.

My Philosophy
I believe that the key to a well developed concept is in the meta—the underlying themes that connect and reverberate throughout the story. Whether it's a comedic animated short, or a long-form live action drama, my development process begins with helping creators identify those underlying themes. From there we build outward, slowly and methodically, until we have a fully fleshed out idea with a strong foundation and clear perspective, that honors the creator's unique vision.
