Biography

MJ wrote, produced, and directed his first stage play at the tender age of 15. In Latin. Then, he took almost three decades off to regroup during which he graduated from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, made, lost, and made money while jetting through several careers. Returning to the arts in 1999 with just enough money to make trouble, MJ graduated from UCLA's Professional Program in Screenwriting, studied production, and in 2004 founded Scraping Bottom Productions. He has written seven feature scripts, directed, written and/or produced eight short films, numerous television and radio commercials, and hosted a regional PBS series.
