Born in Bridgeport, CT , I am the last of three sons. After moving nine time in almost as many year, my family settled in the Valley of the Sun. My initial career path lead me to follow in the footsteps of his father, to Purdue University in West Lafeyette IN, studying mechanical engineering. After 3 year, I realized that his future was not to be in engineering. While in Indiana , fate conspired to introduce me to a future influence that would kick start my filmmaking career.
My fascination with movie magic led me back to Arizona and a degree in computer animation. Reuniting with fellow Boilermaker, Purdue Alumnus David M. Quiroz, I was given the opportunity to work on my first two feature projects: Night of the Chihuahuas and The Lonely Ones. From that point the path was set. In 2006, I received a degree in business and formed the digital media studio, View from Above Entertainment.
