I was raised on prestige dramas, the CW, and the kind of pop culture moments that made you pause your DVR. One of my earliest memories is going to the premiere of Beauty & the Beast, and by middle school I was writing movie reviews for the school paper between study halls spent scrolling Entertainment Weekly. I’ve basically always wanted to know why stories work — and how to make ones that do.

My path to creative work meandered through music, radio, and a deeply misguided PR stint before everything clicked on the set of Judge Judy. That job gave me my first taste of fast-turn storytelling, talent wrangling, and what it feels like when something you helped make actually connects. I was hooked.

Since then, I’ve produced, directed, and developed content across streaming, digital, branded, and social — including work for Disney+, ABC, Hulu, Showtime, and Paramount. I’ve also helped brands like Walmart, Verizon, and Microsoft tell better stories (ideally without PowerPoint).

What I love most is making content that hits a cultural nerve — whether that’s a red carpet livestream that doesn’t feel soulless, a vertical video that’s actually funny, or a docuseries that celebrates the magic makers.

Also: I care deeply about good coffee, hard work, and making people feel seen. I take the work seriously — just not myself.

What Drives Me

I’m drawn to projects that remix the familiar — stories that spin classic tropes into something sharper, stranger, or more specific. Whether it’s a season of TV that unfolds over one day (The Pitt) or a show that shoots each act in a single take (The Studio), I’m always chasing creative risks that feel deliberate, not gimmicky.

Everything’s been done - just not by me.

What People Say I’m Good At

creative problem solving (especially when the clock’s ticking)

Reading the room (and the moment-plus whoever’s signing off)

Spotting talent

Leading with emotional intelligence and A sense of humor

collaborating with high-profile humans - without flinching

ordering the perfect beverage (every. time.)

Generating ideas that are smart, unexpected, and on brand

a healthy respect for budgets

(A Few) Dream Collaborators

Some people dream of yachts. I dream of this Zoom invite list.

Yes, it’s wildly ambitious. That’s kind of the point.

What You’re Getting

A grounded, collaborative approach to everything I work on. I’m less about ego and more about cohesion—and I’m fluent in the unspoken art of reading the room.

Also: I’ll defend 90s R&B one-hit wonders and Buffy the Vampire Slayer like they’re high art.

(Because they kind of are.)

The through-line?

Taste, timing, and a deep belief in making people feel something.

If you want to make something emotionally intelligent, culturally tuned, and beautifully crafted—I’m in.
