About Me

I am a filmmaker living in Brooklyn. For cash, I work freelance as an editor and shoot videos for theater marketing companies. I also work on set in various capacities (whatever pays). All this is in the service to make my own films and travel when the opportunity arises.

I just wrapped a short film that I am eager to start cutting.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To see the world and get the chance to know the people that inhabit it.

Books: Just read Spalding Gray’s journals and now back to the stack of fiction I’ve been growing for years.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I coordinated a local marching band to be a major element of my last film. We shot in the downtown area of a New Jersey city without permits and, despite this, got exactly what we needed --- pure joy on camera.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help surfers get to know New York City as a functional and comfortable place to live, not just a Mecca for tourists.

I want to learn about the people and cultures of the world that I don't know nearly enough about.

I'm happy to share my city with surfers.
