I have worked as a director, editor, and cinematographer for over the past five years, creating narratives, commercials, documentaries, as well as content for educational and non-profit organizations.

I also have produced and directed a variety of projects and events for Steeltown Entertainment Project, often alongside my students. Past clients have included NoRilla, Expii, Youth Places, The August Wilson House, and the PA Partnership for Children.
A recent narrative I co-directed and co-produced titled Huckleberry Pie. A movie about a father and son dealing with grief in very different ways. Huckleberry Pie is a movie for all ages and the first attempt by myself and co-director Joseph G. Bucci at directing a “family film”.
Screened as part of the 2022 Pittsburgh 48 Hour Film Project.
A program recruitment video I directed and edited through Steeltown Entertainment Project for the non-profit, Youth Places. Youth Places is a Pittsburgh-based non-profit dedicated to youth mentoring and job training.
A narrative I directed in 2015 titled Transience. A movie about a man who wakes up covered in blood and not knowing who he is. Transience marked my initial foray into directing narratives and it continues to have a special place in my heart.
(Transience contains violence and adult language.)
A movie titled Infective that I co-directed and co-edited with frequent collaborator Joe Bucci. An entry into the 2017 48 Hour Film Horror Project, Infective is about a journalist who stumbles upon a group of drifters and finds out more than he could ever bargain for.
