About Me


So much and so little time! I have a real passion for movies - writing, directing and producing! Storytelling on film!
Oh, and watching movies. I love to experience them in the theatre.
Since my accident in 1995 that has left me paralyzed from the mid-back, I have focused my storytelling to feature Characters with a Disability - there are over 54 million Americans with a disability and that represents the LARGEST and fastest growing minority group in America and yet there are very few people or characters with a disability in the film and television media. I am going to be a part of changing that!
My Characters all have spinal cord injuries and use a wheelchair as their primary mode of mobility. Just like myself and after all as they say, write what you know! The stereotypes of those with similar disabilities in film seem to all be about overcoming or dealing with their new disability - my films are going to BREAK the HOLLYWOOD Stereotypes of Characters with a Disability - and give a glimpse in the everyday life of these individuals whose disability is not the center of their life - it is a part of them, like sex, race or creed but their whole life is like everyone else - much more complex then just a part of who they are!
We are on the dawn of a change in American Cinema. I am very exciting about this as a turning point in Hollywood for the characters, people and specifically those within the industry with a disability. Abilities United Productions is already dedicated to "Breaking the Hollywood Stereotypes of Characters with a Disability" and applaud all those who have not given up on actors with a disability and the writers, directors, the filmmakers like myself who have a disability!
If you want to learn more of my work, then I invite you to visit my website: AbilitiesUnited.com - There you will get even more details and info on my feature films, short films, short stories and even a television series all that I have written and developed into various stages!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I love to meet all kinds of people! But I will only get to know them and become friends if they do not bring me down! Positive attitudes a MUST!! Life is not worth complaining about. Do what you have to do so you can do what ever it is that you love to do! And the Life Rolls On Foundation is certainly one of them! Also being from Huntington Beach and the love I have for surfing!

I have not been back in the surf since my accident - but I have written a short story, "Sunrise Surf" that will be adapted into a screenplay about a man who was paralyzed from a surfing accident during a competition 18 years ago and now deals with life as a surf shop owner trying to still capitalize on his fame and dealing with a son who is now surfing as a pro himself but it more technical then a soul surfer! Still he wins and his dad preaches about surfing from the heart but doesn't practice it! As his world is falling apart it is a wonder if it can be resolved before he loses everything! Well you'd have to read the script - or actually it is still a short story right now - I forgot - the characters are real to me and I am sure you'll see them that way too! Especially when I put it on the big screen!

Ok back to who I would like to meet! Well, many in the industry - those who are also dedicated to storytelling on film. Many you will see listed in the Heros section on this page! And those listed below in my Friends list! Would love to meet all of them that is why I have requested their adds as friends! But there are a couple I have to single out! First has to be Marisa Tomei!

It is true, I loved her first in, "My Cousin Vinny" which I still re-watch today whenever I need a good laugh and want to see an incredibly beautiful, sexy woman cursing and being adorable all at the same time! But I have continued to enjoy her movies ever since and I really, really think she is even more beautiful and sexy and adorable today then she was then!

Here is a recent pic of Marisa at Opening day of the Padres and Mets! See what I mean? Someone set me up with dinner with her!

Mmmmm, where to start with this next actress? Dinner? I might be a bumbling idiot, possibly falling out of my chair, or something else and really embarrassing myself out with Eva Mendes! Well the first time, anyway! So instead of asking her out for coffee or dinner, I better ask her out for 2 coffee or dinner dates so that I can make it up to her on the second time around! I think the first time I remember seeing her was in "Hitch" and like everyone else I fell head over heels for her. Since I have seen many more and look forward to many more in the future!

And since we're talking about being incredibly beautiful and talented we have to mention, Charlize Theron! OMG! Right from the get go! Although, I don't think her husband (I know they don't believe in the formalization to be committed to one another so maybe more accurately would be "common husband") might not dig me asking her out for dinner - maybe I can get them both for a business dinner! Hell, Charlize with a crowd of people is still, Charlize and of course nobody would recognize the crowd!

And it would be the truth as for the business side! I would love to have any of these three women playing the role of Marci Waters in my upcoming movie, "London Time"! So have your people call me people! Or maybe I should say have my people beg your people for a get together!

But I could easily go on and on as the list would easily include, Lucy Liu, Jaime Pressly, Liv Tyler, Halle Berry, Amanda Peet, Naomi Watts, Rachel Nichols, Laura Prepon, and do not get me started with, Jennifer Garner! I could talk about her all day! Opps, wait a minute, that sounds too much like a stalker! Or worse, paparazzi! I promise ladies, I adore and respect all of you but I don't have the patience to be a crazy stalker or paparazzi! And if you had a myspace page I haven't found it or it would be listed in my friends list below! Well there could be a "fansite" but you know what I mean!

If it isn't storytelling on film, watching movies and the like then it has to be all about music! I love blues oriented rock music as you can see over there in the Music section! 80's Hard Rock is what I love to listen to. So of course I would love to meet, David Coverdale!

Whitesnake ROCKS! I would strongly recommend getting the new Whitesnake studio album "Good To Be Bad" - If you thought you liked Whitesnake because you heard "Here I Go Again" on the radio - then you NEED this album! If you are already a fan and know more then just "Still Of The Night", "Slide It In" and "Slow An' Easy" then I am probably preaching to the choir and you already have it! Regardless, if you claim to be a rock music fan YOU will find that this "Good To Be Bad" CD is absolutely amazing!

Coverdale has this amazing ability to find musicians to work with as Whitesnake has been going for 30 years now - from Sykes, Vandenburg, Campbell, Vai, and now Doug Aldrich! Doug is an amazing guitarists and I hope he and Coverdale work together for a long time! Oh, and Reb Beach! He is amazing too! Meanwhile you have to check this out!

I also have to keep a shout out to the 2-disc Concert DVD and CD! It was filmed over the 2003-2004 tour and is so incredibly shot, edited and with the highest quality video and audio - it artistically blows away every Live DVD I have ever seen. Click on the banner below for details on how you can get your copy! You will NOT be disappointed!

Who else would I like to meet?

The one I saved for last, is the woman whom I have thought of as the most beautiful in the whole wide world, for the past 20+ years...Elle Macpherson!

Note: If you have come here before you might notice I have trimmed down some of it - and that is because I started a Elle Macpherson #1 Fan page here on myspace. Please visit and request to be added as a friend over there too! There were none dedicated to this awesome beauty so I took upon myself - since I absolutely adore her - and made this page - visit:

Elle Macpherson's #1 Fan

So Elle, just a thought here but you would make this Rolling Filmmaker's dream come true if you ever want to go to dinner! I promise to be, ahem, a perfect gentleman.

****************************************************

You Are Guinness
You know beer well, and you'll only drink the best beers in the world.
Watered down beers disgust you, as do the people who drink them.
When you drink, you tend to become a bit of a know it all - especially about subjects you don't know well.
But your friends tolerate your drunken ways, because you introduce them to the best beers around.
What's Your Beer Personality?
WOW! They nailed this one! Although I am disgusted by watered down and tasteless beers which usually encompasses most domestics BUT I am not disgusted by the people who drink domestics. I just much, much more prefer an import - it has NOTHING to do with being some kind of status symbol - it is ALL about the taste - and it is not surprising that the Europeans have perfected the taste of beer, ale, stout - I really like Heinkens, Amstel Light, and others but even our neighbors to the north - Molson Golden and Moosehead as well as our southern neighbors as my first choice is always a Corona with lime! It's all about the taste, baby! I love things that are pleasing to my tongue! - and if you like the taste of your beer then you will drink it and it will then be worth the drunk ass stupor you'll be in by 2am! Oh and BTW the rest of that is true too - I do end up talking way too much about all kinds of things including the ones I know a lot about after I have had a few! Wait I don't need to be drunk for that! But there is one way to shut me up - keep my mouth busy! Did I mention how much I like kissing?

FOR NEW FRIEND REQUESTS:

Hey, do not be offended if I deny your request. Musicians/Bands/and some so called "models" seem to blanket requests. And it seems some others do too. If you're here to collect friends, please keep moving. I want something something in common with you and/or that you really like what I am doing as the "Rolling (and authentic) Filmmaker". Fans are welcome but please write a little in the "request box" and tell me so! I do for those whom I am a fan of! I know some have gotten past me and I plan to clean it up soon.

And for the record I have the max, 40 Top Friends listed here but I have many more I wish I could put on here - so I do rotate some of them from time to time! If you do not see your pic here it just means I ran out out of space, but I still love you!

My Blog

Is it ALL or NOTHING?

I am torn between a copy and paste of my website blog here or just give you the link! Which do you prefer? Copy and paste each one or just make it a notification with a link every time I post at my li...
