I am an international award-winning filmmaker, director, producer, screenwriter, and editor. I am an alumnus of the Los Angeles Film School with a Bachelor of Science in Digital Filmmaking. Currently, I am a graduate student in the New Media Journalism program at Full Sail University. I weave together news, events, people, and places from around the globe into a documentary format to share stories about our collective legacy as a people..
The topic of Parkinson’s for the website was inspired by my wife, Joann. Diagnosed with Essential Tremor, her struggles with everyday tasks like eating with a fork, trying to thread a needle to sew, or using her phone have pushed me to learn more about Parkinson’s Disease, Essential Tremor, and other movement disorders. I am now on a journey to discover what Parkinson’s is about and explore what a true epidemic it really is.
I am an independent, investigative journalist breaking down the latest Parkinson’s and movement disorder research into clear, actionable news for patients and clinicians. You can learn more about Parkinson’s Disease at The Parkinson’s Foundation, Michael J Fox Foundation, The Huntington’s Disease Society of America, or other websites for movement disorders.
Treatments, medicines, and technology for Parkinson’s Disease are growing at an accelerated pace. If you’re looking for information on that, start here or look at other websites on the internet.
Information about Rock Steady, a physical therapy program designed to help Parkinson’s patients regain some of their motor skills, can be found here. The latest news headlines on Parkinson’s Disease can be found on the website on the right side of the page.
Mini documentaries I produced as a film student can be found by clicking Filmography at the top of the website.
