He holds an MBA in International Business from Notre Dame de Namur University in Belmont, California. With a career spanning over two decades, Arthur brings a wealth of experience, having spent more than 20 years working with two FORTUNE 500 companies and traveling extensively to 43 countries and 49 U.S. states. This diverse background has provided him with a unique and insightful perspective on navigating various cultures.

In 2002, Arthur founded Main Man Films LLC, his own production company, marking the beginning of his journey in the world of television and film production. His professional trajectory commenced in international logistics and expanded to encompass both international and domestic television and film production. Notably, he served as the Executive Vice President of Programming at CoLours TV, America's pioneering multicultural cable channel, holding the position for nearly a decade.

Arthur's extensive production portfolio includes projects in the United States, Japan, Belize, Uganda, Singapore, Germany, Jamaica, Zimbabwe, Bahrain, Nigeria, England, Jordan, and South Africa. Noteworthy among his recent productions are "Infrared Dreams" and "Hush Money," available for streaming on several platforms. His earlier work, "The Shadow Walkers," achieved global distribution through Lionsgate and Netflix.

In 2021, Arthur showcased his executive producer role in "Katakata," an international collaboration shot entirely in Nigeria. Building on this success, he initiated an original series set to be filmed in the picturesque country of Belize in 2022. Excited about his experience, in 2023, he co-founded Belize Global Media LLC (BGM) with two industry veterans. Beyond the set, Arthur generously shares his industry expertise with students at two higher learning institutions.
