For as long as I can remember, I've wanted to put on a show. At 7, I held rock concerts with my best friend in my living room. I performed solo circus acts for an imaginary audience. I would beg my mom to watch something as death-defying and amazing as jumping into the pool in an awkward position.
That, coupled with an intense sensitivity, made me a real handful. At first I thought performance would be the way I used these things to add value to the world. But I rarely got to perform and found the downtime excruciating.
The craft of filmmaking has proven to be endlessly fascinating and fulfilling. Writing is freedom, and it's always there for me. Directing is invigorating, and I'm grateful for every time I get to do it. Editing is my laboratory/playground.
Something I wrote, directed, and edited, Thanatos series, won the Jury Award at the Austin Film Festival. That was encouraging. The series is online now! See below for links.
And so… here I am. Still out here trying to put on a good show and helping others do the same.
