About me
Over the years, the projects I've worked on include national award winning TV spots, feature-length and short documentaries, national corporate and non-profit video, reality TV and scripted travel shows, shorts and feature films. I have played the role of Producer most often, but also Director (doc/vérité style), COO, Interviewer, Senior Project Manager, 1st A.D., Grip, Location Manager, Rough Cut Editor (Avid & FCP), TelePrompter, and Client Service, and have experience in location scouting, casting, managing two small production companies, and even driving a big ol' grip truck. Some of the channels I've worked for include BBC Worldwide (Top Gear and Richard Hammond's Crash Course), The SyFy Channel (Storm War), The Canadian Food Network (The Opener), BNN (out of Holland, BNN Abroad), TLC (Cajun Paranormal), and The History Channel (Investigation Discovery). In the corporate/non-profit sector, I have worked with companies such as Celebration Foods, Travelers Insurance, Kurn Hattin Homes, Hole in the Wall Gang Camp (founded by Paul Newman), Universities such as UPenn, Harvard and Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts, and small business entrepreneurs as well.
In the ad agency world, I was lucky enough to be part of the production teams at ad giants Arnold Worldwide and Digitas, as well as a freelance producer for smaller agencies and production companies in the Northeast, French Louisiana, and California. I've recently relocated permanently to Los Angeles, a move that has been a long time coming, and am now working with the creative and amazingly talented broadcast production team at TBWA/Media Arts Lab. Life is good.
Crewing up
In my free time, I am chipping away on my own labor of love - a feature length doc about our biological drive to PLAY, and how it relates to our brain development, innovation and creativity, and humanity's powerful pursuit of happiness. (It may take another ten years to complete, but my free time is limited, and it's a wonderful side project I have enjoyed slowly bringing to life).
