Neal is a graduate of the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts, and currently works for the Head of Film at PICTURESTART where his credits include various feature films including Tig Notaro and Stephanie Allynne's AM I OK? (Sundance 2022). His last short, FROM THE TOP, premiered at Palm Springs ShortFest in 2020 where it was nominated for a Special Jury Award for Best LGBTQ+ Short.
