Currently, I am a freelancer as well as a Faculty Associate at Arizona State University where I have taught Experimental Video Art, Experimental Film, Expanded Arts and Digital Media.

For 15+ years, I’ve been making films and videos; 10+ years as a professional leading teams that make clients, brands and agencies happy; 7+ years as a multimedia artist working on site-specific installations and immersive live events. 

I’ve been head of production at a full service commercial video company, and an in-house corporate creative at a world-class tech company focused on content, culture, strategy and live events.

I have been blessed with recognition and collaborators: awards from nationally relevant film festivals, solo shows, public art commissions, international screenings, an arts residency, a fellows program, grants, juried group art shows, and being selected for broadcast on TV.

In 2024 I founded Sometimes Cinema, a curated community event centered around moving images and the humans that love them. Our inaugural program sold out.
