I'm a filmmaker, writer and a singer.

Preparing to direct a film that I spent two years writing. If I had to give a genre, I'd call it a Tragicomic Fairytale.

Writing a non-fiction article about the old New York City barbershop singing revival that once began here.

I sing baritone in a 4-part harmony mens chorus. I'm an occasional crooner-lounge-singer with my pianist friend and I write and record my own, weird-sounding vocal music.

My family has a farm up north and I often drive up there, farm, make music, work on projects and frolic with the miniature donkeys.

To make a living, I freelance as a Director of Photography for TV and Documentary. It has taken me to faraway places like China, the Virgin Islands and bland corporate office buildings across NYC. I just returned from England where I shot a guy that celebrates Christmas every day of his life.

Partying with you, being really into things, wanting to explore, setting bars high, CAMPING, putting on great fireworks shows, wanting to talk about cosmic things, never stopping, watching films.
