Bio

I grew up in the mountains of eastern Kentucky. My passion for cinema was aroused at age 13, when a couple of older kids showed me David Lynch's Eraserhead (1977). I attended college at Western Kentucky University. There, I developed my interests in academia, filmmaking, and programming. Those interests were honed during my time as a graduate student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where I earned my PhD in Film. I split my time between filmmaking, teaching, and programming -- all of which you can learn more about on this site. I currently work as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Journalism and Creative Media at the University of Alabama.

I recently completed my third feature film, A Dim Valley, which is currently available on Blu-ray/DVD and VOD platforms through Altered Innocence. You can read more about all of my films and find links to their individual websites under the “Filmmaking” tab.
