As co-owner and executive producer of FRANK, I lead a production company creating content for television, streaming, digital platforms, podcasts, and brands.
At FRANK, we handle every stage of the process, including development, creative strategy, production, post-production, and brand partnerships. Whether we're building a series from the ground up, producing a video podcast, creating branded content, or bringing an established franchise to new platforms, we combine strong storytelling instincts with the experience, resources, and flexibility to get it done.
Our recent work includes several projects with America's Test Kitchen and Netflix, including ATK's first Friendsgiving special for YouTube and the food and travel series On the Road with Bryan Roof. We're also producing three video podcasts for Netflix, including I Changed My Mind, a celebrity interview series hosted by Dan Souza.
Other projects include YouTube specials and the renovation series In With the Old for Magnolia Network, the primetime cooking competition Outchef'd for Food Network, and School of Rocco, a YouTube and social media series featuring chef Rocco DiSpirito.
Along the way, I've been fortunate to earn a Daytime Emmy Award for Food Network's Delicious Miss Brown, three James Beard Awards for Best Culinary Program, and recognition from the Imagen, Signal, Taste, and IACP Awards, along with several additional Daytime Emmy nominations.
In my longtime collaboration with acclaimed chef and television host Pati Jinich, I helped shape the creative direction of Pati's Mexican Table, producing and directing multiple seasons of the award-winning PBS series. We also collaborated on the PBS primetime documentary series La Frontera, exploring the food, people, and cultures along the U.S.–Mexico border.
Before owning and operating FRANK, I spent years building my experience, honing my skills, and making some great friendships along the way through my work at Follow Productions, The Chew, Rachael Ray, Magilla Entertainment, and my formative years at Rainbow Media.
But the best connection I ever made was in my very first job, while working in the mailroom at The Late Show with David Letterman. That's where I met my now-wife, Sarah, who was working as a receptionist. These days, we're raising our two boys in the Hudson Valley.
