From the backcountry of Minnesota and Montana to the creative hub of Los Angeles, I’ve built my career blending a love for the outdoors with a passion for storytelling. I’m a founding member of Mission Ranch Studios, where I’ve directed over 15 commercials for brands like Wrangler, LMNT, and Pepsi, and continue to collaborate with top studios including Stept and SixTwentySix.
My path started in VFX, where I worked as a generalist at Stept Studios on high-profile projects for Fortune 500 brands, before stepping into directing and producing full-time. Along the way, I co-founded Haus Exhibition, a marketing company that thrived during the real estate boom, and cut my teeth as a backcountry camp counselor, ski instructor, caddie, and even dishwasher—roles that taught me grit, resilience, and the value of hard work.
Today, I’m focused on both commercial and narrative filmmaking. My debut feature project, Scraps, has already secured producers Jeff Davis (Teen Wolf) and Colby Cote (Plainclothes), with the screenplay winning recognition at festivals like Slamdance and Sidewalk. My goal is to keep pushing boundaries—creating bold, cinematic work while amplifying underrepresented voices.
