About me

When I first founded Lima Films I really did not know how to answer when someone asked me to describe your role and responsibilities as President & CEO at Lima Films. I am the executive producer, writer and the relationship builder, but first and foremost I'm the leader of a company that is in its early stages of development which has a lot of potential to grow in the years to come.

Besides obtaining the money for projects Lima Films is a part of, there are other aspects to being the President and CEO's job that include working closely with people, and developing relationships. The management of these relationships falls not only on me but on all of those who represent Lima Films and its something I care a lot about because strong relationships can lead success not only for us but for those with work with.

As the executive producer I am responsible for all the key relationships during the production of all Lima Film projects or affiliated projects. As the executive producer I hire the producer, director and writer, I have developed a relationship with extremely skilled Cinematographers, Audio Engineers producers and Directors.

Nevertheless, as the President & CEO as well as the Executive producer I am called in for situations and incidents others deem as unpleasant, such as negotiating, or renegotiating, or simply saying what needs to be said in order to complete the task in hand. Dealing with misunderstandings about money are common in our business as well as dealing with actors, directors and other member of a production who at times become an issue or distraction on set.
