Storyteller inspiring culture change via TV ๐๐บ
๐๐ฝโโ๏ธMy story: after a near death experience at 27 I walked away from a cushy career as a suit in the fashion industry to pursue a crazy dream.....I wanted to create TV and film projects that amplify social causes and inspire people to live their best lives.
๐ง๐ฝโโ๏ธ It was an uphill battle from the start. Few people in the industry believed in the power of socially impactful storytelling and I had zero experience as a creative or director. But what I did have was faith, and spent the next ten years dedicated to learning everything I could about the art and science of writing/directing for television.
โ๐พ Thankfully, the tides have majorly shifted in Hollywood and the advertising industry. Iโve been blessed to collaborate as a writer and director on projects that have been seen over two billion times, and won/shortlisted over fifty awards: Clio, Emmy, Cannes Lions, Telly, Addy etc.
๐ฅ The core of this work is using mainstream entertainment (scripted, unscripted and branded) as a spotlight for global movement building across a variety of social causes: terminal illness, homelessness, masculinity, food waste, sexual assault, immigration etc.
๐ To date, these projects have raised millions of dollars for terminal illness research, demystified social taboos, and even helped overturn an unjust Presidential Executive Order in the US.
โฅ๏ธ Along the way, I co-founded a very special company called Wayfarer Entertainment, which we sold to a family office in early 2019. I also serve as a member of the Television Academy, Directors Guild, and teach a course on storytelling for social impact at Loyola Marymount University.
