In 1991 he began composing for games, and in 1995, he pushed the limits of music in the game industry with one of the biggest franchises in the world, COMMAND & CONQUER. . Frank was one of the first to break ground with a music style that had cross-over commercial appeal in a computer game, and would have such an impact, that the soundtrack alone was in demand everywhere. By the year 2000, Frank moved up into Television & Film, licensing music for HBO and ABC, and in 2003, became a regular featured recording artist on the ULTIMATE FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIP. . Frank is also a music producer and engineer, recording various artists in the Las Vegas area.
