I've been expecting you...

It's safe in here. A bit drafty, but it'll do. Let me bring you up to speed.

I didn't always direct commercials. I used to be a sketch and improv comedian. Every night, I was doing reconnaissance on the audience. If I listened, I could tell what they wanted. The shift in the seat, the misplaced clap. Once I got the message, all I had to do was execute. I loved it.

Then I got a new message: don't worry about the jokes. If I committed to the character, I held the audience.

That was the beginning of my film education. The audience wanted a story they could live inside. I wanted to build that for them. So I went to NYU. I made contact with Spike. Oscar winners took me in from the cold and shared their intel.

Now I work both sides: predicting the audience, building the story. My work is out there. Austin Film Festival. Funny or Die. Documentary for the CDC. Editorial at TIFF and SXSW.

Which brings us back to you. You're looking for someone. I'm looking for representation. You can close the door now.

It's a cold world out there, and you never know who you can trust.

But you can trust me.
