Bold Journey

I wrote and directed "Echoes of the Night" after experiencing the dancing chords of Chad’s creation underneath the piano at Le Piano, a jazz club in Chicago. Learning about the challenges he’s faced creating his vision and living his dream resonated with me as an artist, as a dreamer. I was inspired to create this film for all of the dreamers. To know that it is possible to live your dream. To witness a reality that is true, forget perfect. While watching this film, I want you to experience the magic of spontaneous creation, echoes of the night I experienced. The performance and creativity in this film is transformative for me. Creating this film helped me deal with the reality of realizing my dreams.
