About me...well, I'm an advertising copywriter with inhouse, agency and freelance experience. I've worked on brand names like Blue Cross, IBM, Proctor & Gamble and AMEX as well as fun projects for TAO in Las Vegas, MyBoudoir in Dubai and Siku Vodka online. I've created banners, TV spots, social content, print ads...you name it.

About me...well, I enjoy film, I've made a few shorts, directed commercials and trade videos. I used to work hand-held camera at the boards for hockey games and under the net at basketball games, that was fun! I've shot 35mm, 16mm, Beta, BetaSP, Hi8 and enjoyed the DSLR revolution. I've never had the opportunity to use a red camera.

About me...I've got a music background, I put myself through University teaching at a music school and playing gigs. I played in bands, roughly around the same time, which made a great tax deduction and earned my membership in SOCAN and ASCAP.

...and I live in Los Angeles, have a 5 year-old, like beach volleyball and have a DIY/home handy man streak that makes me fix and build things.

Tell me about you?
