01 / THE PERSON BEHIND THE WORK
Curiosity starts it.
Craft carries it through.
I’m a filmmaker, creative strategist, and actor with a builder’s instinct. I’m drawn to ambitious ideas and finding a way to make them real.
I produce, write, direct, edit, and perform.
My work ranges from comedy and character-driven stories to unscripted formats and brand concepts. Sometimes I carry a project from the first page to the final cut. Sometimes I bring my part to a larger cast, crew, or creative team.
I’m drawn to outsiders, unlikely leaders, and people with the nerve to push back. There’s room in my work for irreverence, humanity, and a little hope.
That same range carries into my work with brands: finding a fresh concept, shaping the message, and connecting the video, website, and content around one clear idea.

A decade on film & TV setsSelected background work & memorable moments
My background work spans a decade of film and television, including these productions and a few memorable individual close-ups.
- The Wolf of Wall Street
- Stratton Oakmont broker. Worked on the film for 21 days, with an individual close-up in a late-film office sequence.
- Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
- Background appearance with an individual close-up in the opening office scene.
- Money Monster
- TV viewer. Jodie Foster selected me from the background group for a close-up reaction: absorbed by the television, then returning to a game of foosball. The moment drew notice in coverage of the film, with the Miami Herald calling it a “brief but telling shot.”
- Sisters
- Party guest appearing in the arrival sequence and party scenes throughout the film.
- White Collar
- Core FBI background work across four seasons. I was part of the “Harvard crew,” which always felt like a fitting match for my look and vibe.
