Skeptical agnostic humanist with rational anarchist sympathies. Writer and artist with a long history of experience in independent film, television and multimedia projects. Associate Producer and Assistant Editor on Eddie Macken: True Legend (2010) . Creator of short film LOST TIME (2018) .
A lifelong fan of film, I find the filmmaking process at least as interesting as the final product.
