David Jet Teng is an actor/director of Chinese, French, and Cambodian descent from Oakland, CA. He's been in love with films since childhood; his initial sparks came from seeing Batman Returns, Star Wars, The Matrix, Goldeneye, Mission Impossible, and Heat at a drive in theatre with his parents as a child. At age 14, he wrote his first three screenplays. In his early 20's, after a combination of some film school and self-taught methods, he pursued acting and also made a plethora of short films as well. At age 23, he made his first indie feature Nowhere Johnny -- a neo-noir crime film, an homage to two influential filmmakers for him growing up in Martin Scorsese and Michael Mann.
These days, David has scripts in development with producers and is actively working as an actor. In a nutshell, he genuinely loves film and he hopes to entertain people for many years to come as both an actor and filmmaker.
