Film – Chicago

Disabled Retired Military Veteran given a second chance at life to make a difference and to have my voice heard. Chicago native that loves to learn and grow in self and help others. I served my country for more than 18 years and traveled all over the world. After returning home from support of Iraq I was diagnosed with an illness that warranted me only 5 years to live, but due to my Faith in God,(yes I am a believer) diet, laughter and living, I have surpassed my expiration date! I have a beautiful wife of 21years (H.S Sweetheart) and 3 children who think they are grown(2 actually are). I have since returned to school and earned a B.A in Film & Video from Columbia College where I am an also an Alumni Board member and now working towards my MFA in Cinema Productions at DePaul University. I have worked on several feature film projects to include, but not limited to, music videos and television. I am just a likable, laughable, loveable guy simply put and just want others to realize that we all are of some importance!
