I recently directed, developed and executive produced a 24-minute independent animation pilot called Klutz Muttz. I have written 2 pilots, Please, Kill Me and Debatably. I’ve been a social media producer for over 13 years, and an Emmy nominated web producer for The Ellen Show.

One of my favorite film genres is classic black and white silent era comedies. For one of my short films, I decided to recreate this style using an Arriflex 16mm camera. Angry Dave and Stoic Eric are two of the main characters in my pilot, Please, Kill Me. Written, produced and directed by myself.
The Good, The Bad, and the....
A black and white western style short film of mine, with a twist. Shot on an Arriflex 16mm camera. Written, produced, and directed by myself.
Technical Problems
What do you do when the first ever live video chat, that you set up, malfunctions on air during a live taping of The Ellen Show? You crawl behind some chairs and try to discretely fix it of course.
