Afghanistan. 3rd combat tour.
While dodging IEDs and leading missions, I got the worst news imaginable:
My wife was diagnosed with cancer.
My son—already struggling with autism—was hitting puberty, and aggression followed.
There was nothing I could do but survive. And write.
So I started journaling.
That journal became my first screenplay: Over the Berm.
With encouragement from the Chief of Public Affairs in LA, I kept going.
Now I have 3 screenplays in development, a fourth underway, and a book in the works.
But through all that, I realized something bigger:
Most indie filmmakers don’t need just inspiration. They need access. Funding. Connection.
That’s why I built Barnstorming Entertainment.
It’s a matchmaking platform connecting serious filmmakers with serious investors.
Built by someone who’s been in the trenches—in war and in art.
If you’ve got a story that needs the right partner to bring it to life, you’re not alone anymore.
🎬 The platform launches soon. If you are a filmmaker or INVESTOR and would like to learn more

I love films and the process of writing, but it seems the establishment is against independent filmmakers.
Big Hollywood studios seems not to want any original outside content or stories. They are comfortable with old IPs, rebooting, reimagining, death by sequel/prequel or giving us superhero fatigue.
This is why there is a mass exodus.
What we need is a studio for independents that support and encourage originality. A studio that has the tools that can bring together resources, funding, sales and distribution at a cost that isn't prohibitive.
Often we go onto the streaming services to find some good original films/shows to watch. But what we find is a gret idea but poorly executed. Not from the will of the creative teams, but the lack of financial, and other supportive structures in place to promote and lift up those incredible concepts, ideas and work.
Example: to use the software alone for a 2 year production cycle can cost 15-20K on multi platform subscriptions. Add in hiring a line producer, lawyers, agents (If you can get one) distribution by the time you. shoot frame 1 you are nearing easily 50-60K!
The ones that do get there you can ask if who helped, how easy it was and how long it took.
Let's work together and change that.
I am personally putting together an all in one project management software that will streamline the production processes and building a studio/soundstages that will have the needed in house resources to support independents.
