Production
Costa Rican reared in NC. When I'm not making ceviche & biscuits, I dabble in filmmaking, commercials and a bit of tomfoolery.

Producer, UPM

I am a Costa Rican award-winning film producer based here in Brooklyn, NY. My current short is running the festival circuit, LILY+MARA, staring Oona Laurence and Meghann Fahy. THE NYMPHETS, my last feature, world premiered at SXSW and is now currently available on iTunes. In my commercial career, I've had the privilege to work for directors like Stacy Peralta, and Tony Goldwyn and DP’s including Wally Phister, Janusz Kaminski, and Matthew Libatique.

I'm also the co-founder of Sankara Pictures, a Brooklyn film production company specializing in developing short and long-form content.
