I started my years like most sampling drama in high school. I was athletic and started martial art training (Jiu Jitsu) in high school as well. In college, I worked in the TV/Film department getting a degree in applied communications. In addition, I obtained a teaching/coaching degree. I began working for amusement parks and worked my way to writing, directing, and acting in amusement park stunts shows across the country.
I moved back to Oklahoma and began producing local television program, all the time still consulting for amusement park like Six Flags and Universal Studios. I created my own entertainment company in the Mid 80s. I designed haunted houses, continued to create live shows, began working in commercials and got the film bug working as an extra in Rainman.
Along the way I became CLEET certified,PADI scuba certified, stunt driving certified, firearm trained, state and national board certified in education. I trained in most expected area of stunts: (burns, falls, wire work, rachets, air rams etc) I've work with local production company as a carpenter, electrician, rigger, safety consultant, and stage combat instructor.
I continue to train and expand my knowledge and experience. I believe being a jack-of-all-trade is an asset to any production to which I can work. I invite you to check out my IMDB page and resume. Jon B.
