Press

Currently playing: Creative Director

I make short-form and branded video that people actually finish watching. I've been on both sides of the lens: host, actor, founder. Now I direct the work for brands that want to feel like people.

Work

I've crossed the gap between versions of myself more than once. Now I help brands do it on camera.

Before I directed, I was the one being directed. Modeling, acting, podcast hosting. I auditioned in front of a CEO to land a VaynerMedia show, then co-wrote it.

That's the instinct I bring to every brief: know where the energy peaks, land the ending, and cut everything that doesn't earn its place.
