About Me


I am a part time Filmmaker who has been obsessed with the craft for more than twenty years. I directed REDNECK ZOMBIES in the 80s and the music video "HIGH" by jimmies chicken shack.I also shot and directed FIGHTER a mixed martial arts documentary which is contains the earliest footage of Ultimate Fighting Champion Randy Couture and has won numerous prizes on the film festival circuit.Recently I have two projects making the festival rounds - LOOP - A feature that I have been working on for three years and a short, FREEDOM PLAZA, which is a drama that has been an official selection of two festivals so far.LOOP is my baby though. I'm not sure if anyone is going to like it, but I am pretty sure it's going to fuck with everybody. Adrian Bond is putting together the score and sound design. That in itself is worth checking out.LOOP is just full of surprises.LOOP Will have it's World Premiere at the FAIF IndieFest International Film Festival in Anaheim, California October 31, 2007!
