He has 44 previous directing credits including many projects for Hallmark. I did want to point out that he has also directed a couple of episode of the series “Sullivan’s Crossing” which stars Chad Michael Murray and Scott Patterson (that’s Luke from Gilmore Girls) - where season 1 is currently airing on the CW. If you’re a GGH listener and watching “Sullivan’s Crossing” drop us an email or a DM and let us know if it’s something we should be watching. Italia Ricci stars as Avery.
