I have been fascinated by the world of film ever since I was a young boy directing stuffed animals in elaborate action scenes. My main influences are my great grandfather and grandfather who were both influential in the film and animation industry. I began producing short films in high school and during my senior year I produced and acted in a feature film that was only made possible by convincing 60 of my peers to work for free during summer break. Although, I will not show anybody those early works, I do believe that they laid the foundation for my career.
After high school I chose the applied learning route and worked in Los Angeles on multiple sets while interning for famed producer Al Ruddy (The Godfather, Million Dollar Baby). After three years in Los Angeles, I decided it was time to leave and pursue my passion in a different atmosphere. Moving to Austin, TX, I founded Lucky Rabbit Films a full service video and film production company, that has become one of the most respected boutique production companies in the city.
Since moving to Austin I have produced and directed multiple commercials, music videos, print and short films for both Lucky Rabbit Films and Rebel Rebel (a commercial production and post production company). Some of my clients include the UNITED STATES AIR FORCE & ACADEMY, FROST BANK, DISH NETWORK, McGARRAH JESSEE and GSD&M.
I am a filmmaker first, but love working in all aspects of art.
