MY STORY

I’m a creative production leader based in Irvine, California, working at the intersection of storytelling, technology, and emerging media.


My background spans journalism, documentary, unscripted television, brand storytelling, and global creative production. I started my career in news and documentary at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation before moving into entertainment formats like Dragons’ Den and digital-first series development.

Today, I lead creative production at Shopify, where I’ve built and scaled a global in-house studio producing high-volume content across product launches, brand campaigns, and emerging media initiatives. My work has focused on translating complex ideas into compelling stories while building creative systems that scale without losing craft.

I’m especially interested in how AI and new production technologies are reshaping storytelling and creative workflows. Over the past several years, I’ve explored emerging tools and production methods including generative AI, XR environments, and virtual production workflows.

Whether directing on set, developing new production systems, or shaping creative strategy, I’m most energized by work that connects with people and pushes storytelling forward.

I still love being on set.
