About Clint

I’m an ’80s baby, born in Detroit and raised with a love for family, art, music, movies, and laughter. I’m a numbers guy—8 is my favorite for its infinite loops. I’m crazy about BBQ ribs, tacos, and Chinese takeout, but nothing beats time with my wife and kids.

I grew up sketching comics and playing classical piano, with music deeply rooted in my family—everyone played, and I mastered five instruments. My love for sound design fuels my filmmaking, where I bring stories to life through audio.

Told I wasn’t good enough for art school, I left my hometown, chased my dream, and studied visual effects out of state. A local news job in Miami gave me experience, but my heart was in storytelling. So, I picked up a pen, wrote my first short, and started directing. With the support of family and friends, I’ve made multiple shorts and web series, earning awards for my films and writing.

School was never my strength—I hustled day and night to graduate on time. I’ve learned that setbacks don’t define you—determination does.

Every obstacle shaped the artist and man I am today. I live by this: Life’s a journey with detours that make you stronger. I’m here to inspire others to embrace the challenges because the greatest rewards come from the greatest risks.

No boundaries. Just forward.
