Based in Los Angeles, I am a seasoned 1st AD with over 20 years of experience in the industry. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work on a multitude of projects, spanning across various countries from the USA to Germany, Morocco, France, Tunisia, Spain, and Switzerland, and others. My passion for my craft knows no bounds as I have contributed to a diverse range of productions, including award-winning feature films, TV movies, commercials, short films, documentaries, re-enactments, and music videos of all genres. Each experience has allowed me to expand my skill set, working on projects with different scales and team sizes, ranging from 50 members to multi-million dollar productions involving over 1000 cast and crew members.
What sets me apart is my ability to thrive in challenging shooting conditions. I specialize in films that take place in demanding locations such as the Mojave Desert, Sahara Desert, and the Swiss Alps. These projects often involve stunts, special effects, and even working with animals. Alongside this, I have had the privilege of collaborating with some of the industry's finest talent, including Anthony Hopkins, Ving Rhames, Bruce Dern, Neal McDonough, Cheech & Chong, Tom Segura, Jake Busey, Jason Mitchell, Nikolaï Kinski, Sean Astin, Tom Arnold, Gina Davis, and many more. Their expertise and dedication have only motivated me further to deliver projects on time and within budget, always seeking out creative solutions to any challenges that may arise.
While efficiency and professionalism are crucial aspects of my role as a 1st AD, my true strength lies in my ability to adapt to the unique demands of each production while fully supporting the creative vision of the director. I firmly believe that collaboration and open communication are key to a successful project, and I am dedicated to fostering a positive and productive working environment for all involved. I eagerly anticipate future opportunities to collaborate with passionate individuals who share my love for the art of filmmaking.
