Biography

As a writer, director, and President/CEO of TerraHouse Productions, I focus on building premium, globally scalable intellectual property across film, television, and emerging platforms. TerraHouse is evolving beyond a traditional production company into a multi-division IP platform, an original "IP factory", designed to generate franchise-level content across film, television, gaming, consumer products, and immersive experiences.



I'm committed to storytelling that is emotionally impactful, culturally resonant, and commercially scalable, creating original worlds engineered for long-term expansion across global audiences. With over 20 years in the industry, my current slate is anchored by three feature films: CHACHO, a gritty urban crime drama set in New York’s Lower East Side with Jax Media/Imagine Entertainment attached for production; CLEO, a female-driven action thriller slated to film in Bilbao, Spain, produced by José Luis Escolar; and NIGHT CHASERS, an elevated supernatural horror where hip-hop stardom collides with Zulu mythology.



Alongside these films, I am developing two premium scripted series: PHARAOH, an epic historical fantasy with Jax Media/Imagine Entertainment, and OFFWORLD, a large-scale sci-fi series based on my novel Offworld: Origins, which charted recently at #10 on Amazon’s Sci-Fi list, demonstrating strong audience traction and franchise potential.



My work includes collaborations with Jennifer Lopez, Jay-Z, Maya Angelou, The Recording Academy, and PBS. Notable credits include directing Ghostface Killah’s "RUN" (ranked among Complex’s Top 50 Hip-Hop videos of all time), co-producing Soul of a Man, and writing/directing One Night Stay (Paramount/BET+, 2024).



I aim to create stories that resonate globally while building systems that transform original ideas into enduring, scalable franchises, and I’m always looking to collaborate with partners who share that vision.
