This one was insanely fun. I shot and directed this spot for Under Armour's '22 Back to School campaign. We worked with the athletic department of Arlington Martin High to shadow a lot of their athletes during their normal routine. Being a fly on the wall with these amazing student athletes was a blast, and working alongside the creative team at Under Armour was equally awesome. Special shoutout to Eric D'Amario at Wanderlust for knocking production out of the park, editor Kelly Hansen for killing it with this, and to my second shooter Jake Wilganowski for making this thing shine.

Loved shooting and directing some of the video content (on-court and in Oakland) for Curry Brand and Under Armour. Steph Curry and his team are hard at work giving back to communities like this one in Oakland, rebuilding courts (along with many other things) to give more opportunity to kids and communities. ⛹🏾‍♂️

Stoked to share this short doc I shot and directed alongside the amazing creative team at Fair Folk (Boston, MA) for Athletic Brewing Company. I worked to understand what makes chef and former pro cyclist Chris Cosentino tick. He's a badass dude who creates incredible food and kills it on the bike. It was great getting to spend a day with him following him from sunrise to sunset getting a small glimpse into his life and understanding the inspiration behind his collab beer with Athletic Brewing Company.

Working alongside healthcare workers is always such a pleasure, and when NAIL in Providence brought me on to shoot and direct their spot featuring moving portraits of 24 incredible doctors, surgeons and specialists I couldn't have been more excited. Thanks to the amazing team at NAIL for dreaming this up, Eric D'Amario at Wanderlust Content for being a fantastic producer and partner on this project and the whole production team for helping make this a reality.

Hired by the firm tasked with designing the interactive experience of the new Edward M. Kennedy Institute - ESI Design - I had the pleasure of creating a film that showcases the unique experience for students and average patrons alike. I truly believe that institutions (and museums) like the EMK Institute are the future of cultural institutions, and this space and ESI's intelligent design is paving the way to a more engaged and informed world.

I drove 5 hours north to Kentucky where I got an all access pass (and then some) to the cooperage where every single barrel is made that JD is aged in. It was a much more involved process than I could have ever imagined and was blown away by the amount of hands-on work they do there.

Armed with my 5D, a glidetrack, tripod and a glidecam (as well as my talented sound man Miles), I set out to shoot the heck out of this place so the incredible editors at Lost Planet in NYC could have their way with it. Here is what they put together with everything I captured in the short amount of time we were there.

Innovations in architecture & design at MIT.

I was lucky enough to be asked to film a documentary about MIT’s Architecture Program. They are making some incredible advances in the realms of architecture and design that will hopefully push towards more beautiful and functional living spaces.

I was honored to be able to shoot and direct this spot for a place that inspired me since I was a child. The Boston Museum of Science is one of the most incredible places I'd ever been to, and even today it still inspires a sense of wonder and imagination in everyone who walks through its doors.

Volvo’s PR firm – Waggner – approached me to come up with a way to showcase their new XC90 in a way they hadn’t done before with their other vehicles. I couldn’t resist taking it on a road trip, so I took this as a chance to direct my first mini-series, following renowned chef and general badass Jess Roy on a culinary excursion through California. Along the way we met up with amazing chefs and folks of all kinds who shared their passions for life and cooking with us. With an amazing crew behind us, it was hard not to have a good time and walk away with some great content – enjoy!

I had the pleasure of shooting/directing this spot alongside writer Mike Howard (D&H) and producer Chris Jennings (MINDER) for the Connie Cycling Foundation. Seeing the way cycling and the surrounding community affected these children was immensely inspiring.
