Director / DPLong Island, NY

On the road with touring acts. On the ground with local makers.

I produce, shoot, and direct commercial and live visuals. One week means running back-to-back arena dates with stand-up comedians and touring bands. The next means filming early morning prep inside a Long Island bakery, brewery, or work-site.

Production runs lean with dedicated cinema kits, fast turnaround times, and direct communication from prep to color delivery. No bloated crews or unnecessary production friction.
