I have worked on @ 15 feature films,.. from Driving Miss Daisey up to Road Trip and Sweet Home Alabama. 30 or so Music Videos and soooo many commercials i can't count them.
I traveled with WCW Wrestling for 3 years.. well over 300 shows... every city in the country at least a hand full of times. Jeff Jarret, DDP, Lex, Nash, Scotty Stiener, the ATL boys. It was a LOT of fun. the Traveling circus is what we called it... THANKS AOL for F'N it UP !!..
I spent 7 weeks on the coast of Italy working on a cooking show with Mario Batali (My BIG brother): Mario Eats Italy, sooo much DAMN good food !! Italy was AWESOME, but i was sooo glad to get home, eat some steak, drink milk, real spring water, and watch some F'N NASCAR !! .. . LMAO
2007 was a GREAT year,.. i worked 13 NASCAR races for Speed TV-
Talladega , Charlotte, Pocono , Indy , Chicago , Fontana , Kansas , Martinsville , Richmond , Miami
I was the Lighting Director for all the TV shows that Speed TV wraps around the NASCAR race week.

I am a very diverse and contrasting person. . . .
I am very creative and artistic. . . . but built athletic and not geeky . . . .
I grew up in the city . . . . but I am more Cowboy than Metrosexual. . . .
I have traveled the planet. . . . but I like mountain tops over resorts. . . .
I am VERY passionate about the things I LOVE. . . . but I don't love much. . . .
I can be your BEST friend, but if played can forget you faster than a flash. . . .
I LOVE music . . but not crazy about concerts.. . . . . . . .
I work in the TV and Film realm.. I have no reality of days or time.. they all seem like a Friday to me.. I love my career and wouldnt change it for anything.. My weeks are always different which is one of the things I love most about what I do.
BUT, . . .
above all I am very honest and will always tell you what is on my mind and how I feel.
I don't ask for much, just treat people as you want to be treated and a little bit of common sense will go a very long way . .
