Producer of everything. I've done it all in my 30 + years in this town, from Music Videos to Longform DRTV to Reality TV and big Union Commercial Shoots. I love putting projects and teams together to make the magic that we get to call work. Current goal to make this TV show, and also the Documentary, and Scripted Feature, on my Great Uncle who's almost a Saint. So here I am on Stage 32.
Making of a Saint (Working Title) Budget: $5M - $10M | Drama ⋄ Family In the small Italian village of Pontecorvo, Ferdinand Santamaria, mocked as 'Little Saint' for his devout aspirations amidst familial discord, defies his father's wishes to become a Passionist priest. A divine intervention, including a vision from his sister, leads to his father's conversion, allowing Ferdinand to pursue his dream. Cut short by meningitis at 19, Ferdinand's legacy grows as the town turns to him in prayer, attributing countless miracles to his intercession. Canonized by Pope John Paul II in 1995, Blessed Grimoaldo Santamaria's life transcends generations, a testament to faith, familial reconciliation, and spiritual devotion.
The Glitter Fades Drama Making music videos in 90s LA, bad ass, single-mother Jenny, the Catholic girl with budding alcoholism, fights the Hollywood male-mob attacks to stay in her lane. Whilst misrepresenting herself to the dismay of her reserved, pessimistic besty, she freely shares her therapy learnings and creativity, helping others along the way.
