Biography

"Vietnam Aftermath" wins its third Award "Best Short Documentary" in the Independent Shorts Festival in LA. "Vietnam Aftermath" also won "Best Short Documentary" and "Best Inspirational Film" competing with hundreds of submissions with Emmy winning and Oscar Nominated directors in the Olympus Film Festival in LA. Working mostly in television I've developed, written, shot and produced 78 hours of television programming for The History Channel, Discovery, Nat Geo, Outdoor Channel, Smithsonian, BBC, BBC Worldwide, Comedy Central and PBS. My main responsibility is to create story elements that will engage the audience and maintain high ratings. Last year I produced for “Moonshiner’s” and “Masters of Arms” both for the Discovery Channel. Last year I worked on “Forged in Fire” for the History Channel and for “Hidden History” a new series for the Smithsonian Channel to be released in 2019.
