Adam felt a spark ignite as, for the first time, he hit the "record" button on the brand-new tape camcorder his dad just bought for an upcoming vacation. Something inside him changed in that instant, though he couldn't tell what or why. So he followed the feeling. And that feeling blossomed into an obsession with moving images.

In high school he was The Video Guy; whatever class project he was working on became his latest premiere. He graduated from UNCW in 2016 with a major in film studies and a minor in digital arts, and along the way he wrote, directed and edited several short films, a couple of which found a little success on the festival circuit; his dark comedy "1994 AD" premiered at the Cucalorus Film Festival, and he also helmed a couple of video projects that premiered at Dance-a-Lorus.

Two days after graduation, he started working his first full-time job as a video editor. For years afterward, as he grew his video production business, he carved out time to labor on his first original feature-length screenplay, "The Watchmaker" - a retro scifi thriller that follows a widow as she infiltrates a UFO cult to save a young girl.

Over the years, Adam has captivated audiences, from festival-screened short films to original screenplays recognized in prestigious competitions such as the Austin Film Festival Screenplay Competition, the Final Draft Big Break Screenwriting Contest, and the Cucalorous Film Festival.
