Bio

I'm a storyteller.

I've been telling stories my whole life. I enjoy it, and I'd like to think I'm good at it. I watch and critique a lot of feature films.

I listen to a lot of rock music, and pay close attention to the words. Usually when I listen to a song I fantasize and imagine a cinematic video, either following the song's projected imagery or basing it on my own experience, or both (usually).

I have finally reached a point in my life where I have real life experience to share with an audience, and the determination to make it my calling.

I seek to enrich and entertain an audience, in that order.

The LVD Music Video contest is my first work in the entertainment industry whatsoever. I have no professional experience in it and have never so much as sniffed a movie set. I am not burned out. I am the man with no name. If you're looking for fresh talent, I'm the guy.

Favorite Quotes

Because I believe I can. Get busy living or get busy dying. You wanted to change your life - you could not do this on your own. Become who you are. You with a briefcase, me with a shotgun - it's all in The Game. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken sh!t, no matter how much mayonnaise you use. It's only when you lose everything, that you're free to do anything.
