short films & production

In my past as a filmmaker and TV producer, I got to work with some of my comedian friends making short films including Joe Rogan, Chelsea Handler, Whitney Cummings, Bobby Lee, and other miscreants. Some of those you can watch below.


As a producer at E! News, I also interviewed many celebrities including Hugh Jackman, most of the Kardashians, and more. Those clips are only available upon request due to copyright.


I also produced a series of commercials for my family's farm! 


Thanks for checking them out. 

comedy shorts

Accidentally on Purpose

I wrote, directed, and starred in this romantic comedy which also features Bobby Lee and Joey Coco Diaz. 

A Man's World

Joe Rogan appears in a hilarious cameo as the abusive boyfriend in my wild take on gender inequality. 

Inappropriate Boss

I wrote and directed a series of short films starring Chelsea Handler as the nightmare boss. Chelsea is a genius by the way, and so generous even though my production skills at the time were still emerging.

Miss Behavior

I directed Whitney Cummings in this short written by Sam Tripoli

in the family business

Finish the row and you can go home!

I wrote, directed, and edited two commercials for my family's farm, which has been in operation since 1893!

...the bloopers I shot ended up becoming a great theme for this piece...
