SECRET ART PROJECT
SECRET ART PROJECT
founded by
I’m a director, artist, and collaborator drawn to the thin line between the ordinary and the surreal. Secret Art Project is where my film work, visual experiments, and story collaborations live. My collaborators and I are world-builders—exploring the uncanny, the sacred, and the in-between.

My mixed media art practice is a close cousin to my filmmaking work. I create characters and artistic objects that shed light on the real human feelings and come from imaginary worlds that mirror our own.

Film
Narrative shorts, features in development, and music videos rooted in genre, spirituality, and psychological depth. From intimate horror to surreal drama, my films follow characters as they collide with the parts of themselves they’ve tried to outrun. View Films
Story & Strategy (SAP: CoCreative)
I partner with scholars, thought leaders, and mission-driven organizations to shape their public voice. I draw on decades of experience in media, academia, and nonprofit work to create meaningful work - from brand story and strategy to podcasts and branded films. I can translate complex ideas into stories people can actually feel and follow. Learn About Consulting
Ceti Arts
A parallel mixed media visual art collection emerged from my experiments in sculpture, beauty culture, and character design. My first two collections explore performed identities and the sometimes grotesque and horrific process of becoming yourself. Surrealism, body horror, and glam weave together these unique maids and monsters. Explore Ceti Arts
