Most of my other films have been Official Selections at various other film festivals, some currently screening, but no official awards for any others just yet.

I lived a wild and crazy rockstar like life and love to share my unique experiences from being on the ground level during the rise of both MMA/UFC to the Cannabis Industry. There were all kinds of close calls with danger but also big achievements as well as the wisdom learned from the negative and positive parts of that journey both personally and professionally.

Now I am making films for Amazon, FOX & CBS among other streaming platforms where we get to tell stories about all kinds of topics. All of our films are from a serious open minded perspective, and there is an ongoing theme of overcoming adversity, helping people and personal struggles.
