Director Statement

My admiration for film comes from early Martial Arts films, the action, the blood, the practical effects coupled with growing up in a home that always had a Mel Brooks film on. My style is influenced from my experience on stage & with choreography, I use a lot of pre-prep before going to a shoot. I have been known form my guerilla filmmaking adapting to a location as needed.
