I build the machine behind the work, then make the work.
//
A short version
//
I’ve spent fifteen-plus years in marketing and creative operations at Yelp, IAC and AOL, and I write and make films on the side.
At Yelp I scaled the creative team from 2 to 30 and ran 100+ campaigns a year. At IAC I led creative across Vimeo, Daily Burn and Ask Media Group. Before that I worked in broadcast television, with credits on Dr. Phil, Anderson Live and America’s Got Talent.
My scripts have placed with PAGE, the BBC Comedy Room, Curtis Brown and ISA, and I was part of the 2024 All3Media New Writers Collective. I host Emerging for the Edinburgh TV Festival’s TV Foundation, mentor through BAFTA Connect, and run Required Studios.
