I partnered with Rocket Companies to create a series treatment and two hero films that explore the real stories behind the American Dream—spotlighting the challenges, breakthroughs, and personal victories that
shape the path to homeownership and opportunity.
Rocket Films
In rural Georgia, a Marine Corps veteran rebuilds his life after addiction, financial collapse, and personal loss. With Rocket’s structure and support, Tim isn’t just closing deals, he’s creating a new version of the American Dream—one rooted in discipline, community, and self-belief.
This short film follows Tim across his land, on his boat, and within the quiet routines that define his days. Through a weathered flag and a marked-up map, we explore how structure helped him reclaim purpose, how technology gave him freedom, and how belief turned everything around.
