MY FILM MISSION: To make films that enable to viewer to see things in a new way and possibly reconsider their firmly planted convictions and opinions. I want my films to leave the world a better place for an audience having seen them -- to encourage and motivate the viewer to take positive steps they might not have entertained previously, or at least pause and consider before acting or reacting. My favorite films break down the walls of prejudice, or resolve conflicts without the use of guns. And if they're also smart, quirky comedies, all the better!
Film Projects in Development:
