I am a filmmaker and teacher based in Gainesville, Georgia focused on developing a proof-of-concept trailer for a dark comedy feature and a screenplay inspired by the true story of the civilian contractors caught in the middle of the Battle of Wake Island. I also love sci-fi, thrillers, horror, and low-budget films. Always happy to connect with new people!
