Cisco originally hails from overseas where he was born in Frankfurt, Germany where spent growing up for most of his childhood. He works for the local government as a news cameraman and television production technician and does freelance videography and photography on the side. He is completely self-taught in the video/film and photography field and has had no formal training whatsoever beyond his five years work experience. He is happily married to his budding career in entertainment production and isn't afraid to admit he's a fan of the original Power Rangers.
At a young age Cisco knew he was destined to dedicate his life to creating entertainment due to his insatiable need to expand on and express his overactive imagination. Well-rounded with skills in writing, directing, editing, producing, and camerawork and photo-retouching he has put them to use in producing a science-fiction/fantasy photographic comic called "The Pure and Hidden Truth." (www.pureandhiddentruth.com)
Currently, Cisco is in pre-production as he prepares to make his feature directorial debut with "The Peculiars," an independent superhero film set in and around Baltimore City, that tells the story of a team of newly-gone-public crime fighters as they do battle with a domestic terror gang of powerfully imaginative mimes... Sounds like fun!
