is a New England native having been raised mostly
in New Hampshire. He was heavily involved in theater
and acting leading up to college where he decided
to pursue his other love of filmmaking. After
graduating with a degree in film from Emerson
Collge in Boston he moved to L.A. where he attempted
to achieve a more "stable" lifestyle
as a film editor. He worked in the cutting room
on several TV shows and films including Reno 911!,
Ken Burns' Jazz and the Sandra Bullock movie Premonition.
But his career never left the ground and he always
felt something was missing in his life. Plus,
he realized it didn't matter what career path
you take in the entertainment industry because
they're all as stable as a an elephant riding
a unicycle. During a job hiatus he decided to
get involved in theatre again and auditioned for
a play. He was cast and the experience changed
him as he realized that the missing element in
his life was performing. Since then he has been
in a number of plays in both Hollywood and Santa
Monica and is thrilled to now be a part of the
Street School Artist Collective. He also loves
to cook and specializes in Italian food, pizza,
ribs and omelets. He is an avid lover of movies
and his favorite films include All the President's
Men, The Birds and Gremlins 2: The New Batch.
He can also play the baritone horn, which is a
smaller version of a tuba.
