A Blue Flower

My personal feature documentary. After coming out as gay and leaving my religion, I set out looking for enlightenment — including fourteen days in complete darkness, searching for a mythical blue flower of healing.

Short documentary

Castle Otttis

My first documentary, filmed at a mystical Christian castle built as a place of peace for all people — including gay people.

Short film

Out

An experimental short I wrote and directed about a boy who escapes from a room.

Documentary brand film

Gay Couples Institute

A documentary-style brand film for a queer therapy practice — intimate and human, finished with a light generative AI assist.

Commercial

Happy Mother(s) Day

An ad spot I wrote, produced, and directed. Aired locally on CNN, ESPN, and FOX.
