After teaching as a professor in the Radio-TV-Film Department at the Austin Community College for many years, Mocha left Texas in search of cooler weather and the next best thing. They found what they were looking for in the vibrant, friendly city of New Bedford.
Mocha has worked as a programmer and organizer for festivals including SXSW, the Austin Gay & Lesbian International Film Festival, and the Seattle Translations Festival.
Their award winning films have screened on The Sundance Channel, Northwest Airlines, at the Walker Art Center and in festivals around the world.
