Hi there. 
I'm a filmmaker, writer, and teacher living in northern Utah. I currently teach filmmaking, photography, and stage crew at a local charter school. On the side I do a lot of different things, from creating stage props and videos to graphic design and fight choreography. This site is where I keep information about projects past and future, whether they're for school, side clients, or just on my own initiative. You can see more information about my education-specific projects on my teacher page, or you can use the contact page to get in touch with me about one of my projects or about doing some work for you. 

recent projects:

works in progress:

I'm hard at work on my new short film, Surrender, about a man learning to stop fighting against people who are really on his side. The film is ambitious for a short, with diverse locations, intense fight choreography, and a big score featuring instrumental and choral performances. We're just over a year into the process, and hope to be done within the next year.
Day of Grace is a novel about how we deal with death and our time on Earth. The first draft was written during NaNoWriMo 2016, and I'm currently working on the second draft with my writing group.
The longest-term project on my list right now, Camera Obscura is a gamified system for cross-curricular learning based on a science fiction alternate reality world. It uses transmedia storytelling to engage students on many different levels.

My stage crew is currently building this monstrous set for the upcoming school musical, Jekyll and Hyde. It's quite an undertaking! We'll see how things turn out!
