| Introduction | Entertainment industry professional covering the field of high tech in movies, television, internet and gaming.A lifelong obsessive consumer of pop culture and pulp escapisms, I was born and educated in Massachusetts. Upon completion of film school at Boston's Emerson college, I moved to California and began working in television and film production. After 20 plus years working in the industry my life took a slight detour..I decided to return to school to earn my masters degree. I sold everything I owned, packed my car with what was left and moved back east to an area unfamilar to start the next big adventure...After completing my Masters in Interactive Media, I joined the staff at Idyllwild Arts Academy where I currently reside full time teaching Film History and Post production. |
