"Courageous convictions will drag the dream into existence" A daily Mantra written by the greatest Canadian Rock Drummer, Neil Peart.

I studied Theatre in Junior HIgh and High School participating in Drama Tournaments and voraciously reading Samuel French scripts. My parents refused the request to study acting at UNLV. Instead, I achieved a Bachelor of Science in Hotel administration. After 6 hotels, 25 years, and complete burn out, I went back to the roots.

Gratefully represented by a small agency in Orange County, studied at the Larry Moss studio, and participated in Improv at the LA Connection. My ensemble wrote a skit about a funeral home. Eighteen months after we preformed it on 'industry night', Six feet under debuted. Good on them!

After three years, of Stand-in and Background work, I had to give everything up, even a SAG card.

Potholes, speed bumps, and ineffable joy create content and creativity which flows from my fingers on a daily basis. Today I am armed with experience behind the camera due to being in the classroom, on set, and mentored by an accomplished producer.

The goal an accomplished writer of both television and film. Currently, revising my screenplay from a feature to a 4-6 episode mini-series in order to finance and build a brand which will bring much needed information and change on a macro level.

Let's do this!
