A Realizing Moment in Time
Twenty-six years ago, I was sent to film school through the support and belief of Frank Giustra, Chairman of Lions Gate Entertainment. His written endorsement of my craftsmanship, creativity, and work ethic marked a pivotal turning point in my career. That opportunity became the foundation for my journey into the film industry as a sculptor, builder, and world-creator—shaping decades of work across set design, construction, and large-scale creative production along with Integrating Quality, and Precision craftsmanship to the Building and Construction Industries. This moment remains one of the most meaningful validations of my path and purpose
