Comedy. Doc style. Unscripted. I create content that hits.
I am a powerhouse showrunner, writer and director with over 20 years in comedy, doc style and unscripted television. Comedy is my spark. Real stories are my heart. I have always needed both.
I’m a seasoned storyteller. I know how to shape a narrative from the ground up and how to stay true to the emotional core. I bring strong instincts for structure, pacing and character, with the flexibility to adapt on set or in post. I understand that great storytelling takes both vision and collaboration. I can lead a team through development, give direction that sharpens the work, and build a space where everyone feels invested in making the story better. Whether it’s a doc-style moment or a comedic arc, I know how to find what matters and make it land.
As a comedy producer, I know how to balance creative freedom with structure, how to protect the funny without losing the heart and how to build a team that knows when to push and when to trust the beat. I’ve worked with all kinds of talent, seasoned pros, first-timers, big personalities, and I know how to make them feel supported and seen. Timing, tone and trust are everything in comedy. I’ve got an ear for rhythm, a strong gut for what plays, and a love for the genre that runs deep. I don’t just know what’s funny. I know how to get it made.
If it’s smart, funny or full of heart, I want in. Let’s talk.
