Story

I've spent my career finding the moment that matters in hours of footage. Now I build the systems that do it at scale.

For twenty years I've edited and shot for network television. Golf for FOX and ESPN. NCAA championships. The pieces that air between the games. Live TV teaches you to deliver: the show airs at a fixed time, ready or not. Commercial work taught me the other half. For the largest financial publisher in the world, my videos are measured in sales, $1–5M within 24 hours of release.

I started my first technology company at 15, designing websites at the dawn of the public internet. My film career began in Hollywood, working for Lawrence Bender, Quentin Tarantino's producer. After the Sumatra–Andaman earthquake and tsunami in December 2004, a few friends and I went to Sri Lanka to make a documentary, and I knew I belonged in the field. That led to a five-year stint at Outdoor Channel, then to Austin and my own company, Oremus Productions.

In 2020 Jason Rink and I started Media Pending, a studio for long-form documentary storytelling and our most creative client work. By 2024 I was writing my own software for the edit bay. Then OpenClaw kicked off the agentic AI revolution, and we were in it from the first month it hit the mainstream. That's when we founded SuperClaw. I run it as CEO, and today we build private AI from what companies already own. It's the same job I've always done, with better tools.
