About Christian

I am an experienced director and screenwriter working primarily in the commercial and narrative world accompanied by work in music videos and documentaries. With background in business and in creative fields, I work effectively, learn quickly, and specialize in quick problem solving in any environment.

Raised on a farm in North Carolina, I spent my early years tending to animals, reading, and creating stories with my three brothers. Over the years, a strong appreciation and love for art became rooted in me - leading me to pursue a career in the entertainment/art field.

I specialize in screenwriting and directing with extensive background in video art. I strive to one day write absurdist sci-fi thrillers for television.

Initially beginning in the literary short and poetry world, I developed my skills to focus on the craft of writing for the screen. In addition, I have experience and passion for copywriting, technical writing, journalism, and long-form literature.

My directing passion and experience began in the theater world where I moved from acting to stage direction. While I still act, directing became my focus, moving from the stage to the screen.

I graduated from Elon University with majors in Cinema Arts and Public Relations with minors in Digital Art, Business, and Writing Studies.

I love super smash bros, backpacking, animals, and reviewing movies. If nothing else, I’d love to be your friend. Check out my resume if you’d like to know any more!
