Dabbling in narrative storytelling starting with audio cassette tapes as a child, over the years, I have worked on awarded feature independent films, awarded shorts, animations, documentaries, and art works that have screened at major museums, film festivals, broadcast TV, and institutions.

Some of this work is available for evaluation in my portfolio here. I can provide links to other work that I can't make public yet.
