He garnered attention with his comedic music video "PPL B TXT'N 2MUCH", which caught the eye of MTV executives and won several awards on the short film festival circuit. Additionally, he lends his voice to the Adult Swim series "Minoriteam" and has worked as a producer on several episodes of MTV's Emmy Award-winning series "True Life".
