I grew up in Europe of American parents but moved to Los Angeles at 12 years old.
I started my film career in the editing department at Paramount Studios and worked my way up to become an editor on more than 34 feature films and television series.
Over time, I expanded into directing and producing, creating several award-winning films. My first short film as a director, “Going Home” won top honors at the Chicago International Film Festival. From there I directed several other films, including “The Mirror,” which I also wrote, premiering at the Hollywood Film Festival. I’ve also had recognition for my films at the Sitges, Austin, Nashville and the Cannes Women in Film festivals to name a few.
I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide range of talent, including Scarlett Johansson, Eva Mendes, Christopher Lambert, Burt Reynolds, and Raquel Welch. I also co-produced the U.S. version of the Chinese epic Air Strike, starring Bruce Willis and Adrien Brody, distributed by Lionsgate.
As the founder of Good & Plenty Pictures, I’ve written and produced over 200 movie trailers and numerous commercials for major studios like Lionsgate, Warner Bros., and Disney. Corporate clients were attracted to my cinematic approach to telling their stories, and corporate work continues to be part of our company's vision.
In 2021 I was hired to direct and edit a sports competition reality TV series; “Surviving Mann,” which is now in its 4th regular season and 4th All Stars season. From the beginning, the producers and I wanted the series to be documentary-based, not reality TV.
That meant no retake, no prep.
Though I had worked on documentaries before, most notably with two-time Sundance Grand Jury winner Ondi Timoner, doing over 60 episodes of a documentary series made me realize that documentaries are my true calling.
In the fall of 2025, writer Nicky Baker and I set out on an adventure to tell the story of legendary European music composer and producer Jean Kluger, which brought me back to my childhood home of Bruxelles and Paris. We are currently in post-production on this film to be completed by the end of 2026.
