About Teo

Cool Room Entertainment is headed up by TEO, a multi-award-winning filmmaker and true renaissance man in entertainment whose versatile efforts have spanned the last 35+ years. In his native hometown of Washington, D.C., he started as a songwriter, producer, and performer with a number of local up-and-coming bands before relocating to Los Angeles to further pursue this and other showbiz interests where he almost immediately landed national modeling, commercial and voice-over campaigns for the likes of Newport Cigarettes, Nike, Coca Cola, and Budweiser, respectively.

Sci-Fi movie fans know him best as Corporal Bronksi from director Paul Verhoeven's cult classic, 'Starship Troopers', the DJ from 'Barb Wire' (starring Pamela Anderson) or the episodes of Star Trek: TNG where he played a Klingon. While other fans remember him from 'Showgirls' (another Verhoeven cult hit) where he menaced as one of Carver's bodyguards.

He shared the silver screen opposite David Duchovny and Timothy Hutton in 'Playing God' and 'opposite Kristy Swanson in 'Supreme Sanction' as well as television shows, Unsolved Mysteries, Married With Children and Coach, to name a few.

As a writer, TEO's first two professional jobs were as a freelance sketch writer on Comedy Central's 'Comic Justice' as well as lead writer on ESPN2's 'Jam Central'. The latter of which he also served as the Voice-over host. He has gone on to be a script consultant and "polisher" in the indie film world.

In 2003, TEO launched Cool Room Entertainment, a film & television production company dedicated to seeing balanced diversity in those mediums. He has gone on to appear in, produce and/or write & direct a number of music videos and short films of which have premiered in the likes of the Los Angeles Film Festival, ‘HBO's Project Greenlight' and BETJ's ‘Best Shorts' programs.

More recently, TEO has been building a solid reputation and winning awards as an Online Content Producer.
