Filmmaking has taken me on some of the wildest and most fulfilling adventures of my life. From the jungles of Africa to soundstages in Sydney.
Every place, every project, every adventure has brought a new story. Be it of resilience, of growth, of adaptation - from the natural world around us to the human experience itself.
I love bringing stories to life and I’m endlessly grateful for the journey so far - Looking forward to the many stories still ahead.
Feel it. All of it. Watch til the end.
If you listen closely enough, even your pain is trying to teach you….. how to be alive.

Sick of short Insta videos?!?!
Unlikely, but here is our full length KICKSTARTER video - it’s all of 3:00 long and full of storytelling, smack talk (about other games), donuts, and magnificent beach scenes. Filmed & edited by the wonderful @camerajames ! Now it’s finally on Instagram, in case you haven’t seen it …on our Kickstarter page (but please go there too)! Enjoy it Donutball fiends.
On 4/29 @the.doohickeys reunited with guitar legend @eugeneedwards25 who played guitar on this very track " Rein It In Cowboy " on the debut "All Hat No Cattle "

The month of April has been crazy.
Crazy fun with friends and multiple shoots, a lot of editing, and a wild adventure to the Pacific Northwest with @reallesstroud not to mention some empty bottles of @fernetbranca and some good ol two-steppin.
Let the good times roll.
