GRASPING STRAWS

Three distinct stories involving a gun deal gone wrong, a gruesome murder, and a journey for revenge all violently intersect over the course of one twenty four hour period.

Written as my second feature length screenplay, this film is a hyper stylized blend of the bizarre and unexpected ways people’s lives can become intertwined, often at the worst possible times…

A BOILING FROG

A small town dirt track racer trying to escape his past is unwillingly thrust into an art heist by a pair of psychotic former associates from Chicago.

The first feature length screenplay I wrote, this film is best described as a "fish out of water" thrown into a nightmare rave from hell, that's then stomped on a few times for good measure.

Their Discarded Memories c. 2026

A selection of photos I scanned and edited, picked from a bin of abandoned 35mm slides.

Dated 1962-1988.

I don’t know who shot any of them, or where they were taken, but now digitized, maybe the capture of these images, memories and moments can help them live on a bit longer, not entirely forgotten, not yet thrown away.

“Harajuku, FL” will have its film festival premiere this February at Slamdance in Los Angeles.

Two years ago, I sat in Slamdance screenings and walked out charged with inspiration—wide-eyed, restless, hungry.

To now return with a film that I and a small army of brilliant friends poured so much love into feels surreal in the best way. This is where Harajuku, FL gets to take its first breath.

More screenings soon. From Miami to the world. 🛩️🌎



Last slide: Bong Joon Ho at Slamdance in 2000, premiering his first feature “Barking Dogs Never Bite.”

The original ask was to bring the world we’ve been building for “Harajuku, FL”to this film-ad. We ran at the opportunity & built on the language. Thanks for the trust.

@salomonsportstyle @salomon @andrewmiami

So many artists worked on this project and made it their own. The need from us was always for them to step out of their comfort zone and have fun. The amount of times we heard “I’ve been waiting to get to work on something like this” was what we were hoping to hear when preparing this project.

To more sets, more cameras, more people.

"THE STABBED MAN"

A tiny film created a few years back to screen test some practical blood squib FX.

Funny enough, the police that showed up later in the night had no problem with our trunk of blood filled condoms, knives, and ski masks. Lucky us!
