Bio

Gender: M
Your vocation(s) (hold Control key to select multiple): Actor; Screenwriter; Film Director/Producer
Bio: I’ve been acting most of my life. I am trained in improvisation from both Improv Asylum and Improv Boston. I have done various acting gigs in/around Boston including independent films, short films, improv/sketch shows, Mystery Dinner Theater, industrials, voice-over, and commercials. I have had leads in such theater productions as “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged)”, “Singing in the Rain”, and Neil Simon’s “Rumors”. My film credits include the independent films “Camp Slaughter” and “Haunt”.

In addition to acting, I have written, directed, and starred in two short films. One of which, “Buffalo Tales”, won the Best Picture and Best Director awards at my college’s annual film festival. I have also worked internships at both the Cannes and Venice Film Festivals to learn about the industry from the other side of the camera.

I am currently working on: NXT Cast @ Improv Asylum. We have shows every Wednesday night at 8pm; an independent horror film called “Drive-in Horror Show”; Improv shows with my improv troupe “Slow Clap”. I am also working on finishing up a feature film screenplay I have been working on.
