a storyteller is a world trapped in a person

Respect for the truth. Insatiable curiosity. Relentless observation. Attention to detail. Reverence for the big picture — These are some of the most important qualities of a professional storyteller, devoted to bringing ideas to life. As a filmmaker, photographer and writer, I strive for and respect the truth more than anything. What do I mean by the truth? Essence. The most stripped away, fundamental, pure and powerful truth at the center of any given message. What is the intrinsic nature or most indispensable quality of your project? This is what stories are.

Whether you are defining your brand, promoting a project or product, capturing an event or situation, conveying an important message or transporting your audience into a wholly different world — I use the power of storytelling across a variety of mediums to capture that essence. A storyteller is a world trapped in a person. My life’s work is to liberate that world, that idea, that essence, that truth, so that it may be shared with the whole world. Tell me your story, and I will make it a reality.
