Showcase & Discover Creative Work

I produce, write, direct, shoot and edit films and television; working in entertainment television, documentary, arts and children’s programming. I studied art history at the University of Minnesota and received a B.F.A. from New York University's Institute of Film and Television.

I’ve worked on some of the most innovative shows on television. What I bring to every project and client is exciting, enlightening story-telling –with style, humor and intelligence.

The range of topics I’ve produced cut across almost every imaginable area from pop culture to nano technology. I excel at interviewing both ordinary people and celebrities. I have the ability to find –and get access to –unique stories and people.

I work with low budgets, getting high production values. My conceptual skills allow me to catapult into new territories with ease and success.

Working primarily as a field producer, at various companies I have also led small teams, training and organizing producers, crews, editors and designers. I am prepared to take on any challenge –creative, logistical or organizational –low or high budgeted projects and coordinating all aspects of production from casting through post. I thrive in high pressured situations.
