About

I’m a New York–based director, DP, and writer making sharp, entertaining work that earns attention.

Over the past 12+ years, I’ve worked across editorial, documentary, and branded video—most notably as a senior video journalist at The Wall Street Journal and a features producer at New York magazine, creating projects for Vulture, The Cut, and more. My work lives at the intersection of reporting and spectacle: demolition derbies to test crash detection, mechanical bulls to test AirPods, 8-bit video explainers, even the occasional existential cartoon iPhone.

Today, I run Humans Remain, a small production outfit focused on ambitious, story-driven video for media companies and tech startups. We make explainers, documentaries, and branded pieces designed to break through, whether that’s a film about a handwritten New York Times ad, a live-event documentary, or a high-concept stunt.
