Born in Burbank, CA, and raised in Simi Valley, CA–I am a former U.S. Marine intelligence analyst who started writing after receiving an honorable discharge from the Marines in 2002. Starting with prose I moved into short and feature length screenplays and eventually comics (I have two illustrated projects in development) as well as acting and then producing. In 2007 myself, Douglas Lamore formed Charlatan Studios where we produced over twenty short films (I have produced several films outside of Charlatan, over thirty in total) the second of which won "Best Low Budget Short Film" at the 2009 Palm Spring Int'l Shortfest which was sponsored By Jason Reitman and Daniel Dubiecki.
Douglas Lamore and I developed and wrote a period, TV series drama entitled "BLUE" in 2018 which was pitched to and well received by executives at Brillstein Entertainment Partners. It is still being pitched at present.
I have also edited a feature documentary entitled: "All Hail The Popcorn King" (2019) and recently served as lead editor on a confidential film exposé for a notable Hollywood icon and celebrity (Release Date: TBD). I have also secured funding for a feature-length documentary (filming this spring), and am in the process of adapting a book series and developing it as a limited series for streaming distribution.
In addition I am in the process of writing and illustrating a comic entitled BAD MOJO, and a second comic, in development entitled: PARRIS ISLAND: Where Marines Are Made", as well as a biographical account of my spiritual awakening (currently untitled) and a horror novel-to-medium budget indie feature.
