Lauren Vana and I premiered our new short film, ‘Cry Night’ at the 2025 Omaha Film Festival. We got a great reaction. Lots of laughs. It was awesome collaborating with one of my favorite stand up comics in Omaha. She wrote a great script and we both co-directed this one. After we wrap up our festival entries, we’ll put it online for everyone to watch!

Check out the music video I directed for Neva Dinova’s new song ‘Lonely Heart’. Out now on Saddle Creek Records.
