Description

A bit about me: I am an executive producer and head of production with 17+ years of experience collaborating with major media players and top luxury brands. I have produced more than 1,000 hours of content and eight original series spanning multiple seasons.  As a creative leader, I have managed production crews of up to 25+ on global shoots for individual projects budgeted at up to $750K each. Across my career, I have worked on creative projects distributed through major outlets such as Amazon, Vice, HBO, Showtime and others. In my last role as Director of Production at Petrolicious, I have ideated, developed and produced multi-episode series that reached digital audiences in the millions.I produced network quality short form series that drove 80-fold growth in YouTube audience in four years and collected millions of views on YouTube (including one project with over 2.7 million views).
I conceived and produced four original series (all still running), generating more than 2,000 episodes to date.
I led 14 producers and directors in six countries to produce two new original episodes of programming per week.I began my career as a film editor and my passion for social issues documentaries took me around the world to tell stories that spanned across multiple countries. From the civil was in Nepal, to orphanages in India and Domestic Violence in Europe. Building stories out of years of dailies (for Nepal we had 6 years of footage), taught me to be a better writer and to really dig for the story within, the story that never gets to be told. This also prepared me to work at Petrolicious, where in 8 years we became the go-to publication for vintage car content. We produce full documentary series on interesting owners. Our success was dictated mostly by looking at the passionate owners first, and the car second. This is what is set us aside from most car content programming. Last year I  ideated a documentary series for the promotion of the Porsche Taycan that was supposed to have no car content in it whatsoever. It needed to talk to the heart about invention and legacy. It was so well received that Porsche was able to sell it to Amazon Prime Video and Vice.
