About
I started my career as an intern at The Onion in 2005 producing and directing photo shoots with the graphics team. Over the next seven years I'd become the Graphics Director and work on two NYT best selling books. I left that dream job to pursue my passion, video: I produced Big Fan, a feature film that was shot at my grandparents house and nominated for Grand Jury at Sundance, and then joined Adult Swim, where I led the content team responsible for producing daily shorts. Then I tried to get in touch with nature by moving into a cabin in the woods in Portland but that was short lived, Pop TV came calling and I joined the new network as Promo Director, overseeing its launch as well as episodics, series launches and social campaigns for many shows including Emmy award winning Schitt’s Creek. In 2016, I moved back to New York City to start a live interactive app company with the founders of Vine, one of those apps was HQ Trivia. After 2 years or being the Creative Director at Citizen, I launched Loop — a new creative studio in Brooklyn where I lead a team focusing on content, brand marketing, stunts and interactive product experiences.
