Bloom also attended the sheriff’s academy and served as a reserve deputy with the Orange County Sheriff’s Department from 2001 to 2011. He is a certified self-defense expert and a Sifu of a rarefied street lethal modern Self Defense System called “Bojuka”. He has participated in combat seminars and taught use of force techniques to law enforcement, military and private security worldwide.[3]
In 1997, Bloom developed and ran a .com hub known as AnimalWorldNetwork.com.[4] The website was an outpost for pet products, information, video content[5] and celebrity pet lifestyle coverage, selling and shipping fair-trade, organic and holistic pet supplies with both brick and mortar locations and a robust online presence. Bloom sold the domain and business in 2007 for an undisclosed eight-figure deal.
Bloom is well known for his long standing association with the Call of Duty franchise, having performed voiceover and motion capture work in a majority of the franchise titles[3] culminating with the role of Captain Nick Reyes in Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, a first-person shooter video game by Activision. Bloom is both the player character, modeled on his likeness, and the writer of the game's acclaimed narrative,[6] for which he was nominated for 'Outstanding Achievement in Video Game Writing' by the Writers Guild of America.
