Born with a facial birth defect, I battled a speech impediment and bullying throughout my youth but I was able to conquer one of life’s hardest challenges…being genuinely happy. I am a former Hollywood stuntman, school teacher, college and pro athlete. Am a current business owner, author, speaker, father, and husband. How can I help you?
I spent over 17 years working on some of the biggest movies in the world including 8 Marvel films (Spider–man Homecoming and Far From Home, Black Panther, Ant-man, Captain America Civil War and others), as well as The Dark Knight Rises, SALT, The Other Guys, Zombieland 2, and many more.
I am now a business owner (Ninja Nation Huntersville), Author (“Falling Down to Find Myself”-release date of 9/2022), and speaker. I want to share my life experiences with you, but more importantly I want to share what I’ve learned in a way that you, and the people around you can benefit from it.
I was born with a facial birth defect and battled a speech impediment and bullying throughout my youth. Which prepared me for some of the challenges I faced later in life such as being wrongfully arrested and jailed in college to name one. I went on to play minor league professional baseball, then became a school teacher, Slamball player, and Hollywood stuntman.
Along the way I forged a mentality that would greatly enhance my chances of not only success in each endeavor, but more importantly finding happiness throughout the struggles.
I have identified, elaborated on and articulated exactly what that mentality is and how you can have it too.
Using my life’s experiences, many of which involve some of Hollywood’s biggest stars, I attempt drive home my central point of WHO you are matters more than WHAT you are in everything I offer.
Start with the book to learn more about me (it’s all in there!) Then let me know how I can help, from speaking engagements to running team building events, and everything in-between.
