How do you make your creativity, something that's not just about yourself? But something that you can involve a broader community in?
I've had to ask myself these questions. Can I find people who are a little bit better than me or peers, mostly who trust me enough to be able to come and say, 'I'm gonna be totally honest with you about this thing.' They could be off the wall. I've got another friend who is ADD and has no patience. And so I he'll be like, 'This script is boring. I didn't get through it. It was too boring. ' Even just that feedback tells me something.

ABOUT ME
I started my career as an accidental filmmaker. I wrote a “practice script,” hoping one day I could write one that I could sell or produce. That script became my first film, “Senses of Place,” which went on to win awards on the film festival circuit and was distributed by FilmBuff.
I then moved to Hollywood where I eventually made nine feature films, eight documentaries, and worked with actors Carrie-Anne Moss, Melora Hardin , Zac Efron, Edi Gathegi and Angela Sarafyan in this year's Caged, and many more. I've worked with producers Kevin Costner, Bill Borden – Academy Award winner Francis Ford Coppola and Oscar-nominated director Mike Johnson. I have even shared the screen with Josh Brolin, Neil Patrick Harris, Kane Hodder, Naveen Andrews, and many more.
Last year, I released the documentary film, “Hardball: The Girls of Summer.” Currently, I live between California and East Africa, writing and developing new projects, while consulting on film and TV projects.
