I am an alumnus of New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. I received a Bachelor’s of Arts for my study of and concentration in film and television production. SLEEP is my third short film. My first film, Kareem’s Next Education, was about a father’s attempt to explain sexual relations to his eleven-year old son. Underbelly, my second film, was about a bond between a young male and a prostitute formed through artistic expression. Underbelly screened at several festivals across the country, such as Sarasota Film Festival and the New York Latino International Film Festival. I’ve worked on countless film, commercial and television projects, including working as an assistant on the hit NBC primetime sitcom, 30 Rock. I like short walks to my front door and anything hot and edible on a plate.
