I have been producing festival quality comedy videos since elementary school. My earliest success was a sale to HBO when I was in 3rd grade (“The Human Body”, c. 2000). Since 2006, I have been working in a collaborative group “Grog” where I have continued to create original comedy shorts. Grog shorts have also been featured on Funny or Die, Indy Mogul, and have won awards at international film festivals.
