About Spike

Just an old school dude from Brooklyn living his dream of making movies at any level. Lately Atlanta has been my second home with all the work I have been getting out there for BET. 2023 is looking like I will be out there most of the year from what's slated. Right now enjoying the lull and relaxing until the wave starts up again.

Unique traits: Enough patience for the whole crew.
