"When I was at the age of 7, I would continuously run around recording everything and splicing them into a "show". I never asked for action figures or video games, but instead was the child who put an old-school camcorder at the top of his Christmas list. Everyday playdates with friends turned into a day "on set" at the Braylon Show Studios located in the incredibly prestigious Braylon's Childhood Bedroom. We spent hours upon hours creating, taking a new shot at that clip, and editing with the incredibly basic software that was available at that time. 

I knew at age 7 that I wanted to be a director. All of my peers dreamt of growing up to become astronauts, actors, singers, etc. It was a rare dream for a child that age and was also a rare dream even compared to other theatre students in my undergraduate program. I have always been obsessed with the connection we share as humans when we collaborate to tell stories. I especially love working with a team to tell stories when it involves the passion and creativity behind music, which is another area in which I have a background."


I would love to tell a story with you, let's get in touch and see what we can create.
