About Me

It always seems impossible until it’s done. — Mandela

 
 

I am a descendant of artists, musicians, boat makers and tailors from Louisiana, who’s livelihoods hinged on their dedication to perfection. The art of craft is in my DNA.  It’s no wonder that the world of filmmaking captured my imagination in an instant and sent me on a path that has defined my life ever since. I have spent the last 20 years traveling the globe, producing films, commercials and digital content for some of the industry’s most renowned directors, advertising agencies, celebrities and brands, garnering Clio, Cannes Lions, AAA and Effie awards. For me, it’s always about striving for creative perfection, pushing boundaries and exceeding expectations.

My love of the film set began in New York city as a production assistant on independent features where I learned the ropes from the ground up across every department - casting, camera, set design, wardrobe and ultimately landed on the production team at Saturday Night Live. The thrill of the process motivated me on my path to produce music videos and commercials. As a music video line producer, I lived on the road wrangling large productions for artists such as Elton John, Mariah Carey, Christina Aguilera, Wu Tang Clan, Justin Timberlake and many other Grammy Award winning artists. Over the course of my career, I’ve launched production studios, built director rosters, executive produced and line produced for legendary production companies such as RSA,  Epoch, H.S.I. and Believe Media. As an Agency Producer,  I’ve brought creative to life for major brands including Apple, Adobe, Hyundai, Xfinity, Frito-Lay and other global giants. Campaigns have taken me around the world from Mumbai to Chile. Decades of helping people transform ideas into reality has spun a fantastic web of resources and relationships, all of which I bring to every aspect of the production process.

When I’m not working around the clock guiding teams across time zones, you can find me out in nature, hiking and exploring with my dog pal, Luna, or diving into a  body of water, or satisfying my insatiable curiosity for art, culture and food. For me it’s about the people and the journey, not the destination.  I never tire of re-living again and again the magic that happens when a bunch of strangers get together and build camaraderie in the midst of overcoming obstacles, all striving for the common goal of doing good work.
