I started my career as an Assistant Director (AD) in 2013. I excel at managing the relationships and the flow of communication between Producers, Directors, Cast, and Crew to ensure smooth execution of the production. My experience as an AD has made me intimately familiar with the inter-workings of a production and I have extensive experience placing and directing background performers on several television shows, including Star Trek, Designated Survivor, and Umbrella Academy. I recently completed a contract for Elliott Animation working on Lucas The Spider as the 1st Assistant Director of their Live-Action Unit.
