That photo was taken during a magic moment 3 years ago. 3 years ago. That was a moment that was happy, inspiring, creative and full of love and support. 3 years ago. 3 years. Back in February while driving back from Oxford Film Festival, I had an idea for a new film. I even wrote an […]
Silly photo, right – but it was a happy photo…I was back on a film set again. It has been nearly 2 years since I posted here. Reasons? I have been working on a project. Me. I found myself in a place where I was unhappy and stopped creating. I found myself holed up in […]

Our journey with Behind Me ended this past weekend, with our final screening at the Seattle Shorts Film Festival. It is a bittersweet moment. Behind Me was a very personal film for me. It took a lot to make, because it is me. The film falls somewhere between an “art film” or a narrative. It […]
It’s been toooooooooo long. There are many excuses: moving to a different state, new job, settling in, creative block… After start and stop of ideas (and I few I will do down the road, but I am still researching) – I finally had an idea that I liked and after talking/working through it, I now […]
I think it is very fitting that BEHIND ME’s last festival screenings are in Birmingham, Alabama and Seattle, Washington. We shot the film in Birmingham and our lead actress traveled across country from Seattle to be a part of this project. As our journey with this film comes to end, it makes me happy that […]
One of my best friends in the world, Jen West needs your support for her new film project. Jen & I met YEARS ago on a silly, fun afternoon – which included a few drinks and an obsession with finding art. We have been through a lot together and when I say a lot – a […]
Let’s start with REJECTIONS. In June of 2013 I wrapped on my latest short film BEHIND ME. Once we had picture lock, started submitting to film festival after film festival. We have gotten into a handful of WONDERFUL festivals (Flyway Film Fest, Indie Memphis, Montgomery Film Fest, Hill Country Film Fest) but we have […]
It has been a week since the fun-filled weekend that was Indie Memphis. I wanted to say thank you to all of the wonderful people with the festival, the staff, the volunteers, the sponsors and the audiences! It was an adventure. From just driving into a city I haven’t been to in over 9 […]
This afternoon I will be driving over to Memphis, TN. I haven’t to been to Memphis is years. The last time I was there is was one of the hardest moments of my life. I am not going to write about that moment right now, because I can’t. I will just say that having […]
