About Me
Son to a polish-born Opera singer, and an Egyptian father, I began my career with a development deal at DreamWorks based on his short film “BOBBY LOVES MANGOS,”after I was discovered by film critic Roger Ebert at the Sundance film festival.
An Emmy nominated feature/television editor turned director, I directed multiple features and television, including season 5 of Z NATION (Syfy/Netflix) and my feature film entitled #STUCK (Amazon), starring Joel David Moore (Avatar) and Madeline Zima (Californication), of which I also wrote, and garnered several awards such as Best Performances at the Napa Valley Film Festival, and Best Director, as well as the Audience Award at the Sun Valley Film Festival. My second feature film entitled, "MANTERVENTION" (Amazon) stars Mario Van Peebles, Travis Van Winkle (Transformers, The Last Ship), Chloe Bridges (CW: The Carrie Diaries) and Nick Roux (Jane by Design).
HIS FATAL FIXATION, a feature I wrote and directed, was one of the highest rated Lifetime Originals of the year.
PAY DIRT, the feature documentary that I wrote, produced, and edited hits Netflix this winter.
I was recently tapped to write and direct a film for TCL studios, entitled NEXT STOP PARIS. This is my debut into AI generative filmmaking and was the most challenging and creative experiences of my career to date.
I was selected to participate in the ABC Director Television program, and graduated with distinction from Boston University’s College of Communications. I am currently an active member of both the Director’s Guild of America, and Editors Guild of America.
As lead editor I worked on over 100 projects for NETFLIX, AMAZON, NBC, ABC, CBS, PARAMOUNT, FOX, SONY, DISNEY, HBO including the multi-Emmy® nominated Naked and Afraid and The Walking Dead.
