Selected work / 01 / 04

Four stories. One way of working.

Different briefs. Same instinct. Find what feels true and protect it.

The through line

I’ve worked inside global technology companies. I also built a film studio where Hollywood wasn’t looking.

Stills / art direction

The eye behind the work.

Campaign stills and product stories. Real places. Real light.

About / off script

The best idea rarely uses the front door.

I’ve spent eighteen years moving between global technology, independent film, and the thousand small decisions between brief and screen.

The setting changes. I still look for the same thing: the part that feels true. Then I fight for it, with the right people in the room.

Austin, Texas / Working globally

Still up.
Still building.
Let’s make something.

Bring me the launch, the film, or the odd problem nobody knows how to name yet.
