I am a Filmmaker/TV Producer / Writer / Photographer / Coach and Speaker. Along the way I was nominated for Emmys and even won one.  

Following the outpouring of enthusiasm for my short, funny film MY NOSE about my mother's quest to convince me to have a nose job, I knew I had to make the feature film LOOK AT US NOW, MOTHER! It was the hardest and most important film I ever made. Humbled by awards, standing ovations and great press, I knew I had succeeded in my mission - to make a film that would help others. 
 

This film has become the centerpiece of my workshops, keynotes and seminars. I was invited to give a TED Talk called NO MORE DRAMA WITH MOTHER. I talk about forgiveness and transforming difficult relationships into healthy ones. 
 

I began life as a graphic designer and went on to design multi-media shows and do corporate videos. Appreciated the awards I got along the way. There is nothing like validation.

​

Clients included Seagram, Volvo, Mattel and Adidas. Then I launched a TV commercial production company producing national spots for clients such a Pepsi, Pampers, and General Mills.

With a desire to tell stories, I gravitated towards documentary filmmaking. Started at a local PBS affiliate where I made Doumeni House and Octavia Butler.
