Just after surgery when I broke my leg while bouldering July 2009, I found myself not being in the hospital but instead being in a spiritual sphere of eyeball looking objects. A spiritual person was there talking to me. Once I did wake from the surgery I could still hear the voice talking to me so I asked if I would ever be able to walk again. The voice laughed and said my next task was to create movies. At that time I didn't even own a camera. The voice said that all will be provided to me, just concentrate not on the leg but on making movies. A fundraiser for my leg injury provided the monies for a video camera which I started making movies with. At first home movies were fun, but it seemed like I was not hitting the artistic mark that the voice was suggesting. So I started following the climbing team at the Phoenix Rock Gym where I found my artistic flow within. The climbing team was traveling to competitions which I became a part of. At first the team was named "Team Thrashers," but the name later changed to the "Rock Phenoms." A two hour movie named Living The Dream became my masterpiece as a thank you gift back to the spirit world. Living The Dream took over 700 hours to create. A second movie that followed was named Phenom Style that took 400 hours to create. All of the movies I created were not posted on the internet since I used awesome songs from the radio to center the video creations around. The movies were gifts given to the climbing team kids, parents, and friends.

Living The Dream created 3/2012. Two disc anniversary special movie for the Team Thrashers Three Year Anniversary. I put endless work into this movie creation! The task was to create a movie that will keep the viewers attention, include all of the team kids within it, and be a keepsake for the parents of the kids on the team. Big thanks to the many parents sharing pictures and video, and big thanks to my friends NEO and Robert for helping me out with many of the silly fun skits included in the film. This movie also shows "The Olson Show" which brings in the team name change over to the Rock Phenoms.

Phenom Style created 3/2013. One hour movie for the Rock Phenoms four year anniversary. Over 400 hours of work went into creating this artistic movie. My plan was to do somewhat the same as the Living The Dream movie, but condense it down to a one disc one hour movie. This movie is a gift to the climbing team kids, the team parents and friends. Big thanks to all of the friends and parents for sharing the many photos and film which made this movie totally awesome!!! Big thanks once again to NEO and Robert for the many silly fun skits included in this movie. Huge thanks spirit world for giving me the ability to reach beyond what I thought were my personal artistic limitations.
