Starting my own film production company wasn’t as much a decision as it was a natural progression of my background. I started out as a photojournalist.

From there, I transitioned into celebrity, advertising and fashion photography. Here I gained valuable experience directing talent, collaborating with teams and learning how to use my creativity to solve problems for brands and businesses.
It also helped me build long-standing relationships with world-class editors, motion graphics professionals and crew members whom I love working with to this day.

It’s my job to make clients feel comfortable with all aspects of a project. And the best way to do that is by creating a detailed plan. (Even if we decide to deviate from it later.)
Think fast.

The arts are not an exact science. That’s what I love about them. But it also means things don’t always go as planned. As the owner of the production company, the buck stops with me. I have to adapt and make decisions on the fly. Thankfully, my years of experience have taught me how to remain level-headed, even when I’m juggling ten things at once.
