Media

The firms that win aren’t the most sophisticated.
They’re the most clearly understood.
I build structured video content systems for expert-led firms where credibility and trust directly drive growth.



Bridgewater built me. Martha refined me. Howard set me loose.

"Brian is an f'in mad scientist"
For 11 years, I was the senior creative producer for Ray Dalio and Bridgewater Associates - at the time, the largest hedge fund in the world, headquartered right here in Westport, Connecticut. Before that, I spent years inside two of the most demanding media operations in the country, producing content for Martha Stewart and Howard Stern - people who had no patience for anything that wasn't exceptional.
I produced every form of video and podcast content for Ray and the firm's senior leadership, translating complex, high-stakes thinking into content that was clear, credible, and worthy of the Bridgewater name. That meant working directly with some of the most rigorous minds in finance - people who did not tolerate mediocrity in any form.
At Bridgewater, if you weren't performing at the highest level, you were gone. That standard is not something I left behind when I left the firm. It's the standard I hold myself to today, working with a small portfolio of financial and professional services firms who want their expertise to be as visible and trusted as it is rigorous.
If that sounds like the standard
you're looking for, let's talk.
Featured Work
Warburg Pincus - Annual General Meeting, NYC
Shot and produced as part of their LP relationship and brand legacy strategy for the firm's 60th anniversary.
Club203 - IMPACT Award Story Film
A mission-identity piece for their IMPACT Award ceremony, built around a real constraint: weaving a large set of interviews into a tight story that had to land in three minutes flat.

Built from every part of the process
Most people only see one side of the work. I’ve built a career across all of it.
