There was a moment I had as a teenager while watching Elliot Page's performance in Hard Candy that was a turning point for me. I thought: if someone can be that good at their art, and I can feel so strongly in response to it, I have an obligation to make my best attempt at doing the same. To spark that same feeling in others. I showed the movie to my friends and they were a little disturbed.

It was at that point I was unconsciously starting to get that I belonged to a bit of a secret club. A club for those of us who feel an incessant itch to seek understanding in the unexpected corners of human experience - the untold stories, the unheard voices, the experiential edges most people shy away from. And if we don't keep looking, we will coerce our significant others to scratch our backs every night in order to fill the void. That's why I tell stories. I genuinely don't know how to stop, and also my boyfriend gets tired.

I'm a musician, songwriter, and performer who once followed a literal dream all the way to a finished music video. I understand the journey from seed of idea to finished piece not just as a technician, but as a fellow multi-limbed artist. I understand what it costs to have a vision, and what it means to need someone to honor it. I can climb into your brain like in Being John Malkovich - but rather than take over the controls, I look around, soak it in, and jump into a beautiful dance with your psyche.

That's what I bring to your work. I tap into that feeling, that incomparable feeling we all get when we are truly connected through art. That moment when we recognize ourselves in each other's work. And in that process, I translate that feeling over to your audience, whatever the format. The music video that gives a song its wings and turns it into a listener's personal soundtrack. The brand film that catches you off guard. The coming of age story that reminds you how alive you felt during all your firsts, and that inspires you to keep finding them. The scene that makes you laugh and cry at the same time - reaching that experiential edge just like Truman, and opening that damn door. 

If that's something you're interested in, then get in, loser. We're going shopping.
