Overview
About Me
I am an alumnus of the Peter Stark Producing MFA Program at USC. I received his BA in Film Studies and Production from Hofstra University. Before that I pursued a degree in Accounting from Villanova University and spent a year at Cambridge University in England studying Economics and Political Science.
Recently, I directed and wrote the feature film "Suburban Cowboy", which comes out in August 2017. In 2014, I produced "With You", a film directed by Grammy-nominated EDM artist Dirty South based on his album of the same name. It debuted at #1 on iTunes in the fall of that year. In post-production is the sci-fi thriller White Space, which I co-wrote and produced. I was a producer on the CG-animated feature Battle for Terra 3D, which was released through Lionsgate nationwide in May of 2009. I'm currently writing/producing the hand-drawn animated film "Orient City" with Hungarian filmmaker/animator Zsombor Huszka. Also in the pipeline, I am producing an adaptation of George R.R. Martin's World Fantasy Award Winning "The Skin Trade", a horror novella by the acclaimed NY Times #1 best-selling author of "A Game of Thrones".
I am also a graphic novel/comic creator. My first book is the werewolf spaghetti western "Harbor Moon." My follow-up graphic novel, "R.E.M.," is a thriller about a neuroscientist trying to conquer sleep.
My passions include lacrosse, MMA, backgammon and traveling.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
