I care about how film and media can transform and make change in the world. I am a film producer and co-founder of Northguild, a production company based in Kingston, NY. For the past two decades, I have led diverse projects, including documentaries, fiction films, and commercials. In partnership with TMI Project, I co-produced three documentaries: Vicarious Resilience (2017), which focuses on strengthening mental health through personal storytelling, and Locker Room Talk (2022), which chronicles high school students confronting toxic masculine culture and redefining what it means to be men. My recent production, One Story at a Time - Celeste Lecesne (2023), profiles writer, actor, and Trevor Project co-founder Celeste Lecesne as he shares his survival story and his vision for a future led by a new generation of queer youth. The last two films are currently circulating at the 2024 Film Festivals.As a Creative Producer at Flannel & Blade for NEA’s Creative Forces, I highlight stories of veterans using creative arts therapies to heal trauma in the seven-part series of Impact Narratives in production. I am currently in the development stage of a feature documentary Orchestrated, which explores the forgotten legacy of the first all-Black symphonic orchestra in NYC.Throughout my career, I have been deeply committed to telling stories about social impact, civil rights, and personal empowerment.
