About Activity

I moved to Vietnam in late 2008 from LA with my wife and 8 year old son to escape the recession. We had been here before; me, the first time in 1994 to produce the first American non-documentary film shot in VN after the VN-US War. We like it here so much that we are planning to stay for at least a couple of more years. I own a record label for film music back in the States and support us by teaching English like all the other expats in Saigon, while my wife is writing her first book. We are looking for an international school for our slightly autistic son.
