In addition to my producing endeavors ( the award-winning PTSD drama THREE FINGERS is at AFF, while metaphysical thriller TORMENTING THE HEN is in post) and background in creative development with filmmakers behind such varied films as FISHING WITHOUT NETS, FRUITVALE STATION and GRACE, I am a seasoned journalist on the festival circuit and the U.S. Editor at TwitchFilm.com

If there is one thing we know it is that change is constant. In what it encompasses, cinema is the art of flux. I am interested in exploring environmentally and economically sustainable models for the making, marketing and distribution of films and transmedia, while being mindful of, and leaning into, shifting markets and interests. IE You do something one way until it no longer works. Then you do it another way. In the history of art and commerce, this is nothing new, of course, but it is imperative that we continue to change the language we use to describe our practices for the better. This approach I call Sustainable-Flux

The identity of such a model lies within my forging of new filmmkaing partnerships and families; from co-writing endeavors, to managing investor co-ops, and producing short, feature and long form projects in the states and abroad.

My feeling is that we live in a time where fostering healthy work ethics will reveal vibrant ways to make impactful films. Being kind to oneself and thus others, and saying we do good work rather than hard work is a positive and passionate stand I proudly take in an industry that often unnecessarily harms people, and thus their passion and projects.
