I began my film career in 1989 as the stunt turtle, "Leonardo" in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: Secret of the Ooze . It was this experince that helped shape my future career, as I realized that filmmaking was the only path I now wished to pursue.
For the next 13 years, I flipped cars, fell off of bunkers, was set on fire, exploded, stabbed, kicked, hit by cars, hit by bottles and shot by every type of gun imaginable. I've been thrown through glass by Steven Segal, clotheslined by Wesley Snipes, flipped to the ground by Michael Jackson and shot by Nicholas Cage, Mel Gibson, Ice Cube, Kurt Russell and many others in some of the biggest action films in Hollywood.
As filmmaking was my true passion, in 2002, I chose to move from performing in front of the camera to creating behind it. I was hired by Westlake Entertainment as head of production. During my tenure with Westlake Entertainment, I oversaw all elements of production, post-production, as well as packaging and distribution. During this time, I produced more than 275 hours of original programming and released over 175 DVD's.
Through my 24 years in the film industry, I have appeared in more than 100 feature films and over 300 episodes of Television but more importantly, I have acquired the knowledge, skills and experience to be an efficient and effective filmmaker.
