My Documentary Films

I’ve been making documentary films for 20 years. I’ve completed two feature-length films as well as dozens of shorter pieces. What started as a whimsical hobby has become an avocation.

‘Welcome to Coalwood’ was my first feature-length documentary. It’s the story of a southern West Virginia Coal mining town. Coalwood is the hometown of Homer Hickam, who wrote a book called ‘Rocket Boys’, which was made into the movie ‘October Sky’.

‘Off the Beaten Path: Aaron’s Story’ (2023) was my second feature-length film. Rather than try to explain this film, I’d rather just show you the trailer.

This film won both Best Feature and Audience Favorite awards at the 2023 Big Water Film Festival.

The full film will be available to view online soon. Stay tuned.
