🎬 $1.25 BILLION IN GLOBAL BOX OFFICE

 

I've spent three decades discovering talent, shaping creative works and deal-making in Hollywood.

I’ve sourced and brokered many tens of millions of dollars in IP deals.

I’ve guided top-tier creative talent to Hollywood’s A-list and steered film and TV projects from concept to screen — and everything in between.

I have executive produced studio and independent projects, and discovered and developed content creators that have driven films to more than $1.25 BILLION in Global Box Office.

I was the first person to discover and then sell 10 Things I Hate About You and Rounders; the first to break an Emmy-winning director by getting his film made; the first to get a Pulitzer Prize-winning writer published.

With a keen eye for eclectic, global, commercial content, I provide leadership, direction, representation and resources for creative talent, media-makers, storytellers and innovators.

I spearhead projects, pitch and market big ideas, broker lucrative deals, and lead talented creative artists to extraordinary results.

I guide, connect and catalyze individuals and organizations to predict their own future by inventing it

 

My Philosophy

Shaping media matters.

Some of the IP on which I acted as either deal-maker, project architect, producer or talent rep.

FUTURE

In the landscape of ideas, you must be able to predict the future. If you’re not part of the future, you’re not part of the present.

VISIONS

Start with an irresistible idea, shape it with commercial vision to make it compelling to Hollywood studios and global audiences. Visionaries shape the future with ideas that matter.

AGENCY

Inspired ideation. Discerning development. Persuasive pitching. Strategic packaging. Driven deal-making. Claim your creative agency.

A NOTE TO FELLOW Creatives

We live at the confluence of entertainment and tech, analog and algorithms, Hollywood and the world. Our complex and dynamic industry needs a navigator, a strategist, an ambassador.

I started Virtual Matter to catalyze virtual potentiality into material actuality; to grow artists into “Creatorpreneurs;” and to apply my unique methodology to projects that matter.*

*Read my book, How To Succeed On Purpose, to find three decades worth of business wisdom and personal inspiration. It will illuminate how to manifest success, actualize your dreams, and live your creative truth.
