Oahu, Hi

I worked on the Pilot, First and Second Season of ABC's 'Lost'. I was hired as a PA on the pilot shortly after I moved to Hawaii. I became a member of IATSE local 665 before Season 1 began and was hired as an On-Set Dresser for the whole season. For Season 2, I made the move to Sound Dept and served as the Utility Sound Tech. Working on the groundbreaking show was the worst and greatest experience of my life (before my son) and I wouldn't trade a second of it. My wife and I also had a brief cameo on the show which was fun : )http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JZItP_xrA8
