I am a filmmaker. I was first exposed to film and video in 1982 during the time that my former martial arts instructor founded a company that produced martial arts training videos. I later produced and directed commercials for my own and other peoples businesses. <o:p></o:p></font></span></p> <p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; mso-line-height-alt: 10.0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style='font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;'><font color="#000000"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>In 1994, I wrote, produced, and directed a 13 episode television series, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Dojo Floor</i>. A few years after that, I wrote, produced, and directed a 20 DVD series called <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Kenjutsu: The Art of the Samurai</i></font><font color="#000000">, where my film crew and I traveled all across Japan recording lectures from historical Japanese locations.<o:p></o:p></font></span></p> <p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; mso-line-height-alt: 10.0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style='font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;'><font color="#000000"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>Later, in 2007, I wrote, produced, and directed my first narrative short, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Blood Promise</i>. This short film went on to win several film festivals, including <u>The San Diego Black Film Festival</u> in 2010. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Blood Promise </i>was also sold to three networks and has been aired many times worldwide. After the success of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Blood Promise, </i>I became the Media Director at Motive Marketing.
