THE ELECTRIC ELEPHANT FLIPS WITH CNBC June 2019
When launching two new original series on CNBC in unchartered territory, creative is key. Collaborating with CJ Harris, Creative Director of CNBC & Victoria Todis, Sr. VP was truly a gift.

THE POWER OF YES
Acceptance, love, diversity, and a splash of glitter- and you have the House of Yes. Created by two of the most amazing powerhouses, Anya and Kae, with a serious lot of trust and creativity- they opened their doors to a really special moment.

House of Yes is something special and they are here to celebrate life with everyone c

SERENA CELEBRATES IN QUEENS
I love when moments are real. Nike invited the team to a debut of a new clothing line with Serena. After years of filming her, I really wanted to capture a moment that was authentic. With kids from neighboring boroughs surprised by her arrival, Serena was as gracious and humble and kind to these aspiring young women. It was a real moment that really expressed how much she gives both on and off the court of itself.. My director of photography, Jason, knocked the moment out o

GOING IN WITH WYNTON MARSALIS & BRIAN NEWMAN
The first time, I walked through the Louis Armstrong Musuem/ Home in Corona, I was floored. When you step in, you hear all of these lovely words narrated by Louis himself, chatting about his perspectives on Jazz and Life. I remember the call we had with Wynton’s management. Time was extremely tight, and we thought we were going to only be able to film at Louis new stadium. I casually interrupted, and I mentioned, I just walked through the Louis Armstrong museum and I was re
