this career has afforded me an incredible opportunity to trot the globe, shooting projects with some supremely talented filmmakers and craftspeople.
talent doesn't stop on location though. more than not, i've been fortunate to hand the negative or drive off to some of the best post folks in the business.
across the board, credit where it's due...

2015 - 20 VP, Executive Producer MULLEN LOWE
Relocated to Boston to make the work better on a second tier cell carrier. And did for a while when they had a partnership with Apple. Creatively moved the needle working with directors like Terri Timely/Park Pictures and Chris Sargent/Anonymous.
Stepping away from the brand, I creatively produced large brand work across the Mullen portfolio. Helming projects for Hyatt, Sennheiser, Rexona and Whole Foods amongst others. Added to my already substantive overseas production experience with jobs in Marrakech, Bangkok and Kiev. Several in Spain with CANADA and re-created the history of forward human movement in Johannesburg with MJZ. Covered the Carpenters with TV on the Radio, Bonnie Prince Billy, Ariel Pink, Alex Cameron, Shakey Graves and more. Shot Fabio out of a whale's blowhole.
Worked with directors like Sam Pilling/PULSE, CANADA/Directors’ Bureau, Salamon Lighthelm/Stink and Matthijs Van Heijningen/MJZ.
2013 - 15 SVP, Executive Producer Lowe Campbell-Ewald
Brought on to head production for Lowe CE’s NYC office. Clients include Milk, Unilever, Sun and Unicef.
2009 - 2013 VP, Senior Producer Deutsch Inc., New York
Handled MILK’s first and only Super Bowl spot with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Intergalactic invasion, lion on a car full of seniors, cat in a tree. With director Peter Berg and The Mill, we cooked up a labyrinth of chaos for Mr. Johnson to navigate all for a jug of cow juice. Can you smell it?
Responsible for overseeing the current “No Rules. Just Right.” rebranding campaign for Outback. Together with Smuggler and Method, we created a production formula that allowed shooting multiple spots, several times a year in Prague and NYC. The formula and campaign have been a major success for the brand. Australia in the Czech republic? Yup.
With Microsoft, I managed producers handling animated and hybrid CG/practical web campaigns. The biggest coup during this stint was licensing a track from Death Grips for a dry Microsoft VS competitors pre-roll spot.
While at Deutsch, some of the directors I had the opportunity to work with were: Aaron Stoller/Biscuit, Geordie Stephens/Tool of NA, Klaus Obermeyer/AERO Films, The Perlorian Brothers/Furlined, Baker Smith/Harvest, Baby/Rebolucion.
2003 - 2009 Producer/Senior Producer Lowe, New York
While at Lowe NY I worked on and then ultimately ran a wide range of accounts. I cut my teeth on car shoots for GMC and SAAB, stylized tabletop and lifestyle shoots for Electrolux and international shoots for Ricoh. I also produced PSAs for MTV and the Ad Council. And that felt good.
Ultimately I handled the large global campaigns with overseas production for the Degree account and a major international product launch for Sharp. I oversaw the Snuggle account which included re-designing and re-introducing a new puppet version of the bear and managing the adaptation of global work for the US market through animation and VFX.
While at Lowe, some directors I had the opportunity to work with were: Daniel Kleinman/Rattling Stick, Gerard de Thame/HSI, Brad Anderson/Independent Media (directed features “The Machinist” and “Transsiberian”), Daniel Benmayor/Anonymous Content.

Oh yes... Jersey is our dog. So no disrespect to the third state in the Union or to the Boss, but the pride ain't for you. It's all for that dog.

On rare occasion, I’ve been able to sweet talk friends into letting me make stuff for them and other friends into helping me make that stuff. Those are good occasions.
