Fight Coordinator / Stunt Coordinator

Picture
I've been a Certified Fight Director since 1997 and started doing stunts 1996.  I've taught in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom and have made a name for myself as a falling specialist, having codified my own system, and as a master of hand to hand. I've taught a range of age levels and have choreographed kids in a bear and pillow fight to the sword work for the last American production of George Stiles Three Musketeers.
In the News
  • Our next workshop for the IOSP is in full swing, see our first sizzle reel - To Boldly Go. 
Sweeney Todd has come to an end but I am grateful for everyone who worked on the production and to Kev McKurdy who allowed me to take over his baby in the United States.  Every time a new cast member came in, it was the creative thrill all over again.  Working on two productions that are filmed on Green Screen:  Sissyman (in post) and Trip to the Moon (continued filming).  I'm enjoying the way my brain has to work around problem differently.
  • Filmed a short "Hammurabi" and a web series "Wonder" for the same brilliant director Lee Ann Hoover.  A pleasure to work with her and would do so again in a heartbeat.
  • Came in for a day to help with some stunts for the web series "We the Internet."  My work is in episode A Congressional (Infighting) Christmas Carol but check out their channel if you are in the mood for a laugh.
  • Sadly "The Time Convention" has disappeared but we wish the producers good luck putting the project back together.
  • "Scarefest" is now in post production, my first horror film.  Not for nothin', horror films are a heck of a good time to shoot.  And yes, the sets are totally scary at night.
  • "The House that Jack Built" received great acclaim last year and we hope to see it continue do well.  The film won a Best Picture, Best Feature, Best Screen Play, Audience Favorite and 2 Best Director awards at various film festivals around the country.
