HIGHLIGHTS
a little ABOUT ME
With a long list of credits from Broadway to film and television, my focused inclination for visual storytelling has been fostered over many years. I lead with passion and humor, always striving to illuminate new stories — whether a tender moment on stage or a complex film sequence, I search for the balance and clarity in every beat. Character-driven work excites me, and I look to balance raw, explosive movement with subtle pedestrian transitions to create moments where the characters move because they must, because it is the only logical progression to ultimately support and elevate the story.
