Cole is a renowned director, executive producer, and creative director who has made it his mission to amplify voices through his artistry. Capturing the essence of human spirit across diverse global landscapes, from the Himalayas to the Philippines, he has directed narratives for industry behemoths like YouTube Originals, Snapchat, VICE, and Nike. While his works have amassed hundreds of millions of views and garnered accolades like Cannes Silver, Gold Tellys, and a Daytime Emmy Award, his true passion lies in crafting character-driven tales that resonate deeply.
His development and directing work with Boardwalk Pictures led to the creation of 'World Debut' for YouTube Originals. This documentary, supported by Tony Hawk's executive production, explores skateboarding, surfing, and climbing subcultures, tracing their road to the Olympics. Through projects like ‘Far From Home’, he played a pivotal role in launching India's inaugural winter Olympic training facility, while spotlighting the incredible journeys of Olympic aspirants.
Beyond these endeavors, Cole's storytelling has taken center stage at TEDx, facilitated collaborations with entities like The Obama Foundation and Khan Academy, and instigated workshops globally with the U.S. Embassy. Committed to authenticity, he urges brands and organizations to foster stories that not only market but also mold our world positively. When he's not orchestrating masterpieces, Cole's personal narrative unfolds across mountainous terrains, basketball courts, and occasionally, karaoke stages. For him, every life moment is a chapter in a grand tale, and he's dedicated to narrating it brilliantly.
