Actor – Writer – Producer - Director - Military Historian
Tino was born in Europe where he attended college and earned degrees in business, psychology and history. At age 18 he then came to Los Angeles filled with enthusiasm and aspirations. He slept in his car for the first five months while he learned the ropes of personal protection while also competing in Body Building and martial arts. He trained internationally and received an Instructor certificate as a licensed Personal protection agent. There after Tino joined the Danish ARMY initially with the National Guard Military Police then actively with the Army infantry,(DRLR, HSGS, PRLR and signed contract with the International Brigade) and finished his active service with NSE/SHIRBRIG at this time he earned Airborne Wings in Holland. Thereafter he worked with the US ARMY Europe in Germany. He is currently serving as a SSG in the California State Guard. He worked internationally as a bodyguard and tour manager for various international artists, before returning to Los Angeles, now his home. Here he became known to the public due to his work with personal protection to the stars and writing books for women on self defense, awareness and dating profiling. Tino is also a published author on WW2 history and lectures on military history.
It is interesting to note that the one thing that set off Tino’s motion picture career off was the military. He was the lead in a national recruitment commercial that won year’s best commercial award. Soon after he started as a consultant on TV shows, soon after to be cast as actor on TV series as E-ring, Numbers, CSI and Crossing Jordan followed by more acting roles in Red Belt, Reno 911, The Race to Witch Mountain, Evan Almighty, Ardennes Fury, Mega Shark, Chained, Normandy, Last Rescue and just finished the lead role in Expendable Assets with Jake Busy and Ted McGinley. He’s also appeared as a security and military expert on many cable news shows and networks including CNN, Fox, Geraldo, Andrson Cooper, Armed Forces News, ABC News and Entertainment Tonight speaking on women’s safety issues. Tino is currently working on several more Military History books.
In 2006 Tino teamed up with renowned writer Warren Lewis (Black Rain and The 13th Warrior). They have produced several films and TV pilots together since and their films have won awards and an Oscar nomination and their feature film; Brothers War, where Tino played his first lead role, was released in 2007 worldwide and has been performing higher than expectations earning Tino now enjoy a distribution deal for all his future films, he currently produces several feature films every year, with several in development and various stages of production. He specializes in War and Action films as his motto is: Produce what you have and write what you know, and Tino have access to an amazing array of Action Assets; Tanks, Weapons, Planes ect and is often hired to produce the big battles for other producers. In 2016 he is also looking to Europe to produce several films there, starting with a Viking Saga set on original location. Tino: “Its time people remember where the Vikings came from, Danish culture is more than a pastry!”
Before retiring from the world of protection Tino wrote a book called Stalked, What You Can Do About It. This informative book is meant to be his legacy and a guide for those women wanting to learn how to better protect themselves and deal with stalking issues. The book is being released in a second updated edition in 2016 and will be published in Europe also. For years since he spoke of these matters on TV and hundreds of national radio shows and has now founded the Struckmann Foundation in order to raise funds and create awareness to help rape victims and to help victims of sex slavery, it is worth noting that of all the films Tino produce parts of the profits are donated to charities for women.
In his spare time he is writing books on Military history and on women's safety and have created several TV shows with Military historic content. He is an active diver and parachutes and always keeps in shape for the next feature adventure such as Sector 4 supporting Olivier Grunor and Ardennes Fury where he leads the dark side during WW2.both premiered in 2015 and Last Rescue a Second World War film premiere in 2015 where Tino Produced and had the supporting lead as the Germane officer trying to save US POW's. Currently he is a recurring character on the USA show Colony and recently visited Timeless.
Tino just now in December delivered his latest Action film Expendable Assets with Jake Busey and Ted McGinley, and began filming a World War 2 movie called Iron Cross shot in Denmark and the US through 2019. Also several more action films are in pre-production Tino is currently negotiating with Discovery Channel about hosting some of their shows, no deal have yet been signed... History Channel take note:-) And true to his interest and background in the military he is currently completing a new WW2 movie named Iron Cross expecting to be released it in late 2020
When not working with charity Tino works with photography and the occasional tinkering with Custom Harley's and is currently filming a fun travel and food show about cool things and a few wheels with History sprinkled - see teasers on MY ROAD
