NJ-411 Listing


Description

I tell real stories. The kind that take you behind closed doors, into hard conversations, high-stakes places, and unforgettable moments.

I’m an Emmy-nominated documentary producer based in Jersey. For over 20 years, I’ve been making non-fiction films and series that dig deep, go wide, and occasionally require a flak jacket.

My work has appeared on HBO, Apple TV+, Netflix, PBS FRONTLINE, Amazon, Bloomberg, VICE, and other outlets you’ve definitely heard of. I’ve produced everything from scrappy indie investigations funded by foundations to sprawling network series with A-list talent and lawyers in every time zone.

Proud member of the Producers Guild of America and the Documentary Producers Alliance. I live just outside NYC with my brilliant wife, our amazing daughter, and far too many hard drives.


Special Skills & Experience

I’ve filmed in prisons, war zones, deserts, gang strongholds, and restrictive regimes like China and Iran. I’ve interviewed presidents and people with nothing left to lose. I’ve led crews through chaos and calm, managed budgets of all sizes, and always—always—found a way to get the story.

My superpowers? Archival research so deep I’ve found footage no one knew existed. Rights and clearances that don’t end in nightmares. Run-and-gun field shoots. Investigative chops. And an ability to keep calm when things go sideways (because they always do).
