Hi, I’m MacKenzie — a director and producer who believes stories can do more than entertain. They can shift perspectives, shake things up, and amplify voices that too often go unheard.
I started my career the old-fashioned way: coffee runs and script copies as a Post PA in Los Angeles. I quickly hustled my way up the post ladder into producing, and by my late 20s, I’d launched my own production company. I’ve since developed and produced work for some incredible talent, turning ideas into content that’s meaningful, human, and full of heart.
At FOX Studios, I got a crash course in producing scripted television from the inside out — and I loved it. That experience taught me how to shape a show from script to screen, collaborate with high-level creatives, and run a tight, efficient set without losing the magic.
Eventually, the East Coast called. I moved to New York and expanded into late-night TV, political comedy, and documentary filmmaking. I’ve directed and produced projects for Disney, Netflix, Google, NASA, and more — all while managing teams, hitting insane deadlines, and keeping the creative vision sharp.
My projects have premiered on streamers like Amazon Prime, Hulu, and Netflix, and I’ve collaborated with major brands to bring smart, inclusive storytelling to commercial work. I love leading teams, mentoring young creatives, and making people laugh (especially in high-stress edit rooms).
In 2022, I produced and directed parts of Origins of Hip-Hop, an IDA award-winning docuseries. In recent years, I produced a feature-length documentary Megan Thee Stallion: In Her Words for Amazon MGM, helmed by an Emmy-winning director. And also got the pleasure of teaming up with RocNation again for a hybrid docuseries following rapper, Fat Joe, entitled Fat Joe Talks.
Whether it's a docuseries, branded content, a political satire, or a feature doc, I bring the same energy: clarity, creativity, and an eye for the heart of the story. My superpower? Translating big ideas into visually striking, emotionally grounded narratives — and making sure we all have a good time doing it.
When I’m not on set or in post, I’m working on a couple of my own narrative feature scripts, reading memoirs, or chasing my baby around the house with a camera (for fun, not content... yet). I live just outside of NYC in Stamford, CT, with my wife, our son, and a healthy rotation of coffee mugs.
Reach out, let’s make something unforgettable!
