Never stop learning. This is me at the illustrious Pizza School NYC where I learned to make authentic New York-style pizza dough. (This pie was topped with ricotta, cinnamon and blueberries….) Photograph by Sam J. Photos
There are many sides to every story.
There are many angles to every subject. Pathos, humor, cautionary lessons, inspiration—the breadth of human experience.
It’s become a foregone conclusion that today’s audiences are hopelessly fragmented. I believe this is a self-fulfilling prophecy that creators needlessly perpetuate. I don’t expect the trend to reverse any time soon, but I strive to tell stories that captivate the masses.
I got my start as a junior assistant editor working in the development department of a Manhattan-based production company that made reality TV. I cut countless multihour casting interviews down to one-minute pitch tapes and learned from master practitioners how to craft sizzle reels that really sizzled.
Since then, I’ve worked on all kinds of content—documentaries, live comedy shows, the MTV Video Music Awards, narrative feature films—for major platforms like Netflix, HBO, Paramount and Apple TV+, as well as scrappy underdogs on shoe-string budgets.
No matter the genre, format or subject, bringing ideas to life never gets old. With every project, I learn something new—about life, the world, the rapidly growing arsenal of production tools at our disposal, and as an editor and storyteller, the all-important: what works and what doesn’t.
I believe my best work is still ahead of me. If you feel I could contribute to your project, I’d love to hear from you!
