About Wesley
Much to his parents’ chagrin, Wesley’s professional life started out as a stand-up comedian producing and performing in shows in such well-known clubs as Gotham Comedy Club, The Laugh Factory, and the Comedy Cellar.
From there, his love of producing, combined with a unique talent for logistics and operations, led him to film and television. As a producer, he has developed and produced everything from horror films to sitcoms to period dramas.
With a love of fun and storytelling, Wesley is particularly drawn to anything that leaves viewers feeling better than when they started, even if the story involves demon hands or dastardly villains or being forced to relive high school.
Wesley holds an MFA in Writing and Producing for Television from Loyola Marymount University and a BA in Studio TV Production from Emerson College. During graduate school, he was a development intern at prestigious companies, including Captivate Entertainment, Hivemind, Three Body Universe, and Valhalla Entertainment.
Wesley currently lives in Los Angeles but is willing to live in a large mansion on a private Greek island if offered.
