MY STORY

The name Sequoia Pictures is a nod to the neighborhood I grew up in, Sequoia Farms. My goal is to approach each project with the same childlike wonder and creative fun we all possessed as kids. Whether I’m making documentaries, brand videos, or narrative films, the objective is always the same - tell a story that connects with an audience.
