I've been editing features and directing shorts for the last 12 years.
Have had two features in competition at Sundance, one at Cannes.
I'd like to direct a feature and, being an editor, believe that first-time writer-directors are almost always too close to the material to do a good job directing it. Thus I'm seeking a screenplay or a writer with whom to collaborate to create one.
Major influences include Eternal Sunshine, Stranger Than Fiction, Slumdog Millionaire, Amelie, Moulin Rouge, to name a few.
