After losing my job in LA, sleeping in my Ford Fiesta, and ducking the man who—unbeknownst to him—was illegally sub-leasing his studio to me, I learned one very important lesson: No one’s coming to save you. Pick up your shit and move forward. Aim for something, anything, and get after it. Twelve days later I was accepted into Brown/Trinity Rep MFA for Acting. Three years later Coronavirus hit. But hey you know win some lose some.
I love Japanese anime, lifting to Phil Collins’ Sussudio, and singing a cappella! Channeling my inner John Belushi, I spent possibly too many summers cavorting around Martha's Vineyard performing with The Vineyard Sound—the island’s professional men’s a cappella group. I now proudly serve on the Board of Directors.
When I’m not going out on auditions I’m learning Japanese, playing piano, and writing my next screenplay, “The Sound”! Heavily inspired by my summers on Martha’s Vineyard, “The Sound” is the dirty love-child of Slap Shot and Animal House, featuring as much all-male a cappella as the producers will let me.
Stories of brotherhood, family, music, the individual vs. the collective, and running counter to the crowd drive my artistic engine. Keep an eye out for my work coming soon!
