BIOGRAPHY

I am a Theatre/Film actor and writer. I grew up in Chicago but have been all over the states for school. I attended boarding school from 7th grade through High School, attending schools in New Hampshire and Indiana. I went to Connecticut for college where I received a degree in Classical Humanities. I took a year off then transferred to Benedictine College in Kansas where I received my degree in Theatre Arts with an emphasis in acting and writing. While in College, I  twice received an Irene Ryan Acting Nomination. Because of that, I went to the American College Theatre Festival twice and made it to the semi final round. I also received Best Supporting Actor my senior year for my role as Bradley in the play Buried Child. Since graduating I have worked as an extra and actor on shows including an Amazon series called Patriot, Empire, and The Exorcist. I  have also been involved in feature films Trackers and The Animator. My work spans from Chicago, Kansas City, Seattle and L.A.

I give everything when I act. I command your attention on the stage and screen, mesmerizing the audience through the subtlety and attention to detail of the characters I play. I am a team player and a director’s joy with my open mind, dedication and positive spirit.
