In a Nutshell

Hello, I’m a Writer/Director from San Francisco. I grew up surrounded by music, language, design fabrication and four brothers. I have a large dog from Sicily named Umami.  

I have connected with performance from the very beginning, leading me to explore acting training at acting conservatories in Seattle and Philadelphia before moving to Brooklyn in 2005. A theater experiment with colleagues warped into filmmaking as we obsessed over films by John Cassavetes. I co-produced, co-wrote and co-starred in the feature GOLDEN TIMES which screened at the Zero Film Fest in 2009. 

My grandmother was a foreign language teacher and my absolute hero. She nurtured my flexibility with language and inspired me to create work in the U.S., Argentina, Switzerland and Italy.

Thanks for checking out my work!
