A career built around practical judgment.

Freelance crew, executive work, entrepreneurship, inventions, and production systems.

Operating principle

There is no art form more complex and risky than making movies and TV. My work has been built around helping productions make better decisions before avoidable problems become expensive.

A systems engineering approach

Cameras, lighting, workflow, crew, story, money, audience, and schedule are not separate problems. They are connected parts of a production system.
