About Doug

I believe the best movies and television have characters you love and stories that can change your life. I draw inspiration from diverse influences to craft compelling narratives about redemption, resilience, and underdogs who defy expectations.

An award-winning director, writer, and producer, I'm known for an impactful and nuanced style of visual storytelling, creative agility, and team leadership. My coming-of-age mystery SLEEPING won several “Best” awards and aired nationally on BET. My drama BROKEN sensitively portrayed rape survivors and advocates, and is used as a teaching tool in crisis centers and the US Army. As a production administrator at WBTV, I contributed to hit series like "Supernatural,“ “One Tree Hill,” and “Men in Trees.”

My mission is to craft emotionally resonant cinematic experiences - whether drama, action, or scifi - that stick with you well beyond the final frame.

Unique traits: Story-driven, love working with actors and writers, jazz/rock drummer & concert percussionist
