In 2024, I took on my biggest production yet, by creating and directing an episodic 6 part series for nectar where singles moved in together so we could track what impacted their attraction to one another over the course of an entire weekend. Enjoy all the episodes below.

Director / Producer
In 2019, I joined Jubilee Media as a full time director and producer. To date, I’ve directed over 60 videos and garnered over 50 million views. Check out a few of my favorite series I’ve created and videos I’ve directed here.
As in-person production halted in 2020 due to the global pandemic, I developed and spearheaded our first foray into live streams to help create memorable experiences for the younger Jubilee fanbase in lieu of traditional moments they were missing out on. I produced, creative directed and technical directed two live streams on Twitch; Jubilee Prom and Jubilee Graduation. Jubilee Prom, our first live stream, featured hundreds of students and reached over 4,000 high schoolers. Jubilee Graduation was featured on the Twitch homepage and reached over 10,000 students and families around the world.
Here are some recap videos of the experiences we created for social media.

Director
“Last Dusk”
In 2018, I got the opportunity to collaborate with composer Jimmy Stoffer on his 12x12 project and directed episode 10. It was a study of interesting lights across Los Angeles in the wee hours of the morning, but once the edit and musical composition started coming together, we found it started feeling like an eerie post-apocalyptic version of the city. We leaned into that with the score, adding lots of layers of low tones and melodic elements to up the chill factor.
