Hi! I am a long time member, but haven’t active. I have spent almost 2 decades honing my filmmaking craft and have held many jobs including video editing for over 15 years.

Recently, a documentary film that I am Executive Producer on, called Echoes of the Invisible, That my director and I worked on for the last 8 years, was accepted to have its world premiere at SXSW this year! But then, of course, the festival was cancelled.

Rather than focus on what we may have lost, and being devastated about this situation, we instead chose to look how we can move forward powerfully and are now in the press and sales process to find a home for our beautiful film and give audiences a chance to enjoy and experience the themes expressed.

I am also currently in development in my first narrative feature film, a female driven tech thriller that focuses on family and themes of lying and betrayal and we are currently looking to start raising funds towards production as we lock down our development needs.

My documentary director, Steve Elkins (The Reach of Resonance (2010)) and I are also in the beginning stages of what his next film will be.

I would love to hear from some of you how this time is affecting you and what is one way you are going to work toward what you want to create in the days and weeks ahead.

Greetings. I am diving in to introduce myself to this community. I am a Director and DoP and paid my dues learning in the business for many years as a PA, Art Department Swing, and non-linear editor. My biggest clients in the past five years being Apple and AOL among ABC, Sony, and many others. Last year I completed my first ever short film, which I shot and directed and edited, called Forgiveness is a Weapon. In February of this year, I traveled to London to support my film in an international festival where it won the award for BEST SHORT FILM. On the heals of this win, and validation for all my years of hard work and learning, I am beginning to raise funds for my first feature film due to hit festivals in early 2017. Please take a moment and look at my new website. You can get a sense of who I am as an artist and the type of stories I will be telling during my career. Thank you and nice to 'meet' you!
