I have been involved in stunt work for television, film, live shows and photography since 1996. My stunt experience includes fighting, fight choreography, car hits, drags, dismounts, and transfers, rappelling, body burns, horse falls, stair falls and other various wrecks and falls.

I previously worked in Chicago for Midwest Stunts where I received my SAG-AFTRA card and first television credit. I currently live in Denver, Colorado.

I have been involved in the Denver film community as a producer, actor, stuntman and stunt coordinator.  My strength lies in creating safety conscious stunts with the understanding that controlled ferocity is what makes the stunt believable. I enjoy collaborating with filmmakers to bring their action to life. My most recent project is called Hold Fast- a film about love, life and the pursuit of action. Told through lyrical voiceover layered over kinetic footage of rehearsals, on camera stunts, and quiet moments, this film traces the emotional arc of a stuntman who gave his body — and heart — to the movies.
