About

Thanks for stopping by! With over 20 years of experience in film, television, and streaming, I have a proven track record of managing and delivering streaming content, with hundreds of Peacock Original projects across various genres and formats, in addition to hundreds of Netflix Originals and tens of thousands of hours of VOD and linear content. As a streaming operations expert and Television Academy member, I have a deep understanding of the content lifecycle, the customer experience, and the key metrics that drive success in the streaming industry. I have worked on multiple Emmy, Golden Globe, and Academy Award-winning projects in production, post-production, operations, and distribution roles. My mission is to create and deliver high-quality, engaging, and diverse content that resonates with global audiences. My favorite roles, however, are being a husband and cat dad.
