Line drawing of an older man's face with a beard, sunglasses, and bald head, on a black background.

I’m an award-winning director of comedy commercials, short films, branded content and more. Born in Boston and trained in LA and NY, I’ve also worked as a creative director, copywriter, and art director for commercials, promos, short films, digital content, animation, and even annoyingly unforgettable jingles.

A former Harvard Lampoon president, I started out working on film crews before moving into advertising at Ogilvy, and later writing, producing, and directing at Comedy Central. My dark comedy short The Call of Charlie screened at 88 festivals in 12 countries, earning 45 awards, including multiple honors for Best Director and Best Short.

An avid illustrator and mild control freak, I always draw my own shooting boards, and my slightly twisted cartoons regularly appear in The American Bystander - praised by Newsweek as “America’s last great humor magazine,” and by The New York Times as “essential reading for comedy nerds.”
