I'm a documentary filmmaker who is working on The Echo Chamber Project, which is about the failures of the mainstream media leading up to the war in Iraq. How I collaboratively produces the film could provide some alternatives for creating a more inclusive media. 

EbbAndFlow.tv is a spritual videoblog and collaboration with my partner Jen.  We create little vignettes about Inner Peace and Outer Action.

I graduated with an electrical engineering degree from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in 1998, and worked as a radar systems engineer within the military industrial complex for 4 1/2 years. After a radical evolution in worldview and saving up enough money, I left on a journey to explore the illnesses with the mainstream media and explore potential new media solutions that could help heal journalism and make it whole.

While working as an engineer, I produced two narrative 16mm films, and directed my first feature documentary called Handicamp. I've worked with the Maryland Film Festival, Silverdocs Film Festival, MicroCineFest, and Johns Hopkins Film Festival as a film screener and photojournalist. I've also covered the Sundance Film Festival, SXSW and IFP Market for FilmThreat.com.

I live in Maine with my partner Jen, who helped produce and shoot The Echo Chamber. The Baltimore City Paper did a cover story on our pre-production work in June of 2004 featured here.
