Josh's Story
Josh was born in Los Angeles, California, but spent most of his life in Northeast Tennessee. After a slightly above average high school sports career (all-conference honorable mention, ya know), Josh earned a B.A. in Communications and M.A. in Leadership. He spend many years behind the camera before venturing to the other side. He has been nominated and won acting awards at various film festivals, and was awarded a 40 Under 40 Award in 2016 (when he was still under 40). He even directed a documentary in 2018. Josh's Top 5 favorite movies of all-time are (in no particular order): The Godfather, La La Land, Top Gun, Les Miserables, and Silver Linings Playbook.
​
Josh believes in chasing your dreams, and lives by a creed written on a coffee mug given to him by his out-of-his-league wife: "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams and live the life you imagined." After decades of living in East Tennessee, this dream has led him back to the LA area, where he is working hard to create movies, shows, and content that people will love. But Josh's greatest love is his amazing wife of 20 years and their three beautiful daughters.
When he's not doing something movie or sports-related, you can find Josh grilling, playing piano, reading, driving kids around, or attempting to do some kind of activity that resembles working out.
