I am a filmmaker and theater director from Albany, New York.
​
My early work explored our relationship to the internet and how low-brow technology like iPhones and even internet browsers, stock footage, and apps could become vehicles for filmmaking rather than a cinema camera. But I moved away from that during the pandemic and as AI developed in the early 2020s.
​
My recent work explores charged, tense, and confusing male relationships; men who meet under unusual circumstances and have a chance encounter that brings inner-conflict to the surface and instigates shifting power dynamics.
​
After years spent thinking about my childhood and the way my sexuality formed through a complicated relationship with heteronormativity, I have developed a once-buried but now passionate, deep, and lifelong love for all types of men that I try to transmit through my films by making my characters sensitive, vulnerable beings. I try to capture the beauty that a lot of men do not see in themselves but I grew up studying, admiring, falling in love with. My films are fueled by compassion rather than criticism and a desire to not only portray how men are but how I would like them to be.
​
My films have premiered at IFC Center, Palm Springs ShortFest, Frameline, Atlanta, New Orleans, Miami, Indie Memphis, MIX NYC, Oak Cliff, Sidewalk, aGLIFF/PRISM, Mammoth Lakes, Sick 'n' Wrong, Sydney Underground, Electric Forest Music Festival, and on Directors Notes, PBS, NoBudge, and Beyond the Short. I received Sick n' Wrong's "You're Special" award in 2020 and was a finalist for the Pandora Short Film Grant and NewFest's New Voices Filmmaker Grant in 2025.
​
I am also a programmer at Sun Pass Film Festival in Miami and the founder of Midnight Movie Theater, a space dedicated to trash, underground, misunderstood, and rarely-screened films.
