About Me:
Christian, husband, father of two, and teacher--in that order!
I grew up as a missionary kid in Korea and Papua New Guinea. I went to Germany for Bible School, then worked on a Kibutz in Israel. I've travelled the world over, and still love the good ol' U. S. of A!
Currently, I have a B.A. in Radio, TV, and Film; and a Teacher Credential from San Jose State University. Even though I graciously declined Roger Corman's offer to purchase one of my scripts, I still write screenplays on the side. (Mr. Corman had other plans for my script--I just couldn't hear my kids say, "My daddy made a movie, but he won't let us see it!")
Currently, I teach Video Production, History of Ancient Israel, and Marine Biology.
The most random thing I'm currently doing: trying my hand at making sourdough bread using the wild yeast from my backyard.
