I'm a native of California and grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area. I retired from the military in the summer of 2015. I served 27 years in Coast Guard that took me to many fascinating places in the states and abroad. I've had an interest in the arts, photography, music and film since my youth and studied graphic design for a short time prior to joining the Coast Guard.
In 2018 I completed my Bachelors of Science degree in Digital Cinematography from Full Sail University graduating as Valedictorian. I'm currently working as an Independent Filmmaker with a focus on documentaries, short films and commercials/promos.
I have been married to my wife Colleen since 1998 and we currently live in Fredericksburg, Va. with our 3 cats.
