He is happiest making messes, collaborating, dreaming up stories, and exploring the human condition.
My primary goal is to impact the world with bold, playful, and creative stories that remind us we’re all human - capable of great triumph, failure, cruelty, and love. I lead with empathy and want my stories to be catalysts for compassion in the world.
Hope is abundant and inspiration surrounds us!
Fitted with a mischievous imagination and fascination for human behavior...
I love exploring heightened poetic spaces and have an affinity for the super stupid and deeply profound. I play with reckless abandon, follow joy and my offbeat sense of humor while remaining curious about what unlocks moments of authentic truth and connection.

My stories are playful, engaging, and filled with interesting characters.
We are complicated, beautiful messes and sharing stories is how we connect to the world around us. I see the world in cinematic moments and intimate scenes. I write about loneliness a lot – the hunger for connection and the desire to be seen. I identify with rebels, outcasts, and individuals that set out on journeys of self-acceptance and discovery on this scary painful planet.
