A native of Austin, Texas, I began my career in New York at Fly Shuebruk Blum and Gaguine, a communications law firm in RockefellerCenter which practiced before the FCC. Later that year I joined Children's Television Workshop as contract administrator, working with Frank Biondi, Jr. When Frank accepted a position at HBO he asked me to join him. At HBO I moved over to production as Production Manager for Interstitial Programming, negotiated film acquisitions and directed post production in all major facilities in Manhattan. I attended film school at the NewSchool for Social Research in New York. After 9 years in New York, I returned to Austin to help my aging father in his private law practice. Recently I have resumed my passion for Film and Television production.
