About Me

I’m not your average creative professional—and I wouldn’t want to be.

I began my career as a commercial photographer in my teens, learning early on that powerful visuals are only part of the equation. Strategy, branding, and—most importantly—collaboration became foundational to my creative approach. Those roots gave me not only the technical skills but also the leadership insight to recruit and direct top-tier creative teams.

For over 15 years, I’ve worked across the film and television industry as both a creative producer and director, leading cinematography and working with A-list actors and musicians to bring compelling stories to life.

My experience spans print, digital, broadcast, and branded content. I bring a high level of proficiency in the Adobe Creative Suite, combined with a sharp creative eye behind the camera. I’m equally comfortable developing visual identities as I am directing large-scale productions.

Notable highlights include:

• Producing and directing the live broadcast of the Reebok CrossFit Games.

• Lead the rebrand of Petsmart’s “Anything for Pets”.

• Delivering strategic, global brand content that balances storytelling with cutting-edge execution.

• Lead and directed Fossil’s digital first mindset in 2020.

I thrive in environments where ideas move fast, expectations are high, and innovation is the standard. Whether I’m leading a team or jumping in to solve a creative challenge, I bring a mix of strategic thinking, hands-on skill, and an unwavering commitment to exceptional results.
