I cherish this industry and always have. As I grow in it, so does my desire to work with the best minds out there.
My vision for my career is to be a part of changing the percentage of black directors that we have in our industry.
I feel called to tell stories for the people who can't, stories that educate, and stories that help people in unique situations or see themselves properly represented. For me, one of the most important things a director must be able to do is listen and I believe my most powerful tool is empathy.
Directing is an extension of who I am as a person & artist and actor. My background as an actor (my favorite moment was working alongside Academy Award-winning Nicolas Cage) adds a unique perspective because using my voice through my directing work is a way I am able to be of service in our community and help be a part of positive changes. I see our industry is finally being held accountable and making a real effort to close the gap on opportunities offered to historically marginalized groups.
Recently I directed my 2nd feature-length production, a film titled For The Love Of Chocolate, released this April. As well, I directed a US car commercial for LEXUS that celebrated Latin heritage. Having successfully created long and short-form projects, I am even more excited about directing TV series and being able to work continually on projects that are important to our culture.
Filmmaking is one of the most powerful art forms out there. Film & TV is the most exciting format filmmakers have right now to be able to bring countless diverse stories to the screens across the globe. I aspire to direct TV series and make films where I can do something special and continuously push the art form from project to project. I am a director that Showrunners trust.- IMDb Mini Biography By: NGL
