I'm a husband, a dad, a documentary filmmaker, and independent producer/director/editor with a passion for helping people tell their own stories in their own words. My work has been featured on PBS, the New York Times, The Atlantic, Southern Living, Garden & Gun Magazine, The Oxford American, Eater, The Bitter Southerner, The Daily Beast, and others.
My family and I live in Water Valley, Mississippi, a quiet little town in northern Mississippi, in a house built in 1872. We love old places and small towns. They exude the stories, passions, joys and heartaches of the people who were there before. Every room tells a story and we love to surround ourselves with stories,
From 2005 to 2015, I worked as a documentary filmmaker at the University of Mississippi's Southern Documentary Project and the Southern Foodways Alliance. Over that decade, I produced over 50 short films and four feature length films focused on the culture, food, music, history, and social issues of the American South.
In 2015, I left my position at the University of Mississippi to pursue a career as an independent producer and director. Since then, I've produced short films and commercial spots for Progressive Insurance, Garden & Gun Magazine, the Southern Foodways Alliance, Brand USA, South Carolina, Mississippi, and Kentucky Departments of Tourism, among others.
