His directing credits include Drag Me to Dinner for Hulu, Second Chance Stage, 12 Dates of Christmas for HBO Max, So You Think You Can Dance for FOX, Freeform's Love Trip: Paris, Hot Wheels: Ultimate Challenge for NBC, Surprise and Scream for Amazon Prime, and the horror shorts Heidi Does Halloween and Heidi Does Halloween II: Klum's Day.
