My screenwriting journey began while attending Brooklyn College and became a real passion while studying 16mm film production at Humboldt State University. My early films Verse Who, The Struggle & The Jazz, When Drums Speak, and Cole's Train, portend a lifelong cinematic focus on working class characters using distinctive framing and taut dialogue. My personal films include documentaries and narratives, including I See Myself As You, Street Soldiers, City Park, Lawrenceville Highway, Beautifulese, and Black/Muslim. I also wrote, produced, edited and directed the feature film Hold For Release.

Through the years, I've done cinematography on several documentaries and narratives, including Ricky's Palm & Rib, Abiku, Actual Retail Price, Lawrenceville Highway, and Love: The American Way using vintage lenses and the Black Magic Cinema Camera.

My upcoming projects include the horror short, Melody, and feature film Barry Waits.
