Born as Chad Olshavsky in Chicago, Illinois, ChadO grew up in Oklahoma where he received his first agent at the age of fifteen. This young Master of Illusions received rave reviews for creating and marketing his own illusions, which landed several opportunities in public performances. In 1998, ChadO met his supportive wife, April, and in July 1999 they were married.Soon after his daughter, Hailee, was born, ChadO made the risky decision to become a self-employed business man. Catering to the affordable bedding needs of local University of Central Oklahoma students, he opened the doors to Broncho Furniture. After his son, Michael, was born, ChadO moved on to open A, B and C Mortgage Group, along with four additional branches to become one of the biggest Supervised Lenders in Oklahoma. During this time, he obtained his private pilot's license, and became a skilled mixed martial artist.Gaining respect from some of the biggest names in the mortgage business, he was given an opportunity to relocate his family to Phoenix, Arizona in 2005. There, he soon discovered the Arizona Screenwriters Association (AZSA), and a new seed was planted. Knowing little about screenwriting, he began putting his ideas on paper. ChadO had his directorial debut in 2006 when he wrote, produced, and directed his first short film under Mellow Monkey Productions, his new production company.After studying screenwriting with the AZSA for a full year, ChadO began running the weekly table reads when he was nominated for president for 2007, which he graciously declined and relocated to Los Angeles. While his family temporarily moved to Alabama, ChadO lived out of his Nissan Sentra, brushing his teeth in fast food restaurant bathrooms, and washing his hair with bottled water. It wasn't long before he found himself in conversations with A-list celebrities and rock legends, inspiring him to lose 20 pounds and create a fresh, edgy image. After obtaining his first option on his comedy, he moved his family to California where they continue to live and work toward his dream.ChadO has eight completed feature screenplays, along with many more hit ideas ready to be written. From low-budget, outrageously raunchy comedies, to high-budget terrifying action screenplays, ChadO has the ability to captivate any audience.A proven entrepreneur, a family man, and a rock 'n roll filmmaker, ChadO is one rising star to watch.
