Since early adolescence, I developed a love and passion for filmmaking and began endeavoring to make it my career. Every professional decision since then has supported that ambition. After several writing, producing, directing, and starring in several short films with friends and high school, (lost somewhere on VHS tapes), my videography career began in the middle of my deployment in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom 07-08. Having deployed has a photographer I was cross trained in country for videography, and for the remainder of my enlistment I would continue to do both photo and video for the Marine Corps
After the Marines I continued my filmmaking pursuit into Cape Fear Community College at Wilmington, NC. I wrote, produced, directed, starred and edited many projects during this time honing my skills at organizing projects, people, time, and money under my production company Vaudeworld Productions, many featuring Miles O'Toole, my Chaplin/Keaton inspired tramp character.
