Nichols Fellowship Quarter Finalist.A graduate of (AFI) The American Film Institute’s Directing Program, directly mentored by DC Fontana (Star Trek), and Gil Dennis (Walk the Line). I am an “actor’s director,” with high-stakes tension as a specialty, my work is consistently compared to David Fincher and James Wan. Award highlights for "Compulsions," include: Best Web Series, Audience Choice Best Director, Best Writer, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, Best Drama. etc. Slated to direct, “Still Waters,” a Sci-Fi that had Leonard Nimoy attached as the voice of one of the main characters. With his passing as well as Executive Producer DC Fontana's, we are now seeking another Legend of the Industry. A short video of Executive Producer, DC Fontana, introducing the film, some of the team – including James Cameron’s Oscar Award-winning SFX team (Aliens, The Abyss, and Titanic)…and mentioning Leonard Nimoy (at the end).
