I was born in the tiny, little town of West Winfield, NY and caught the acting bug when I was just a boy. I honed my quick wit and timing when I entered the world of stand-up comedy in the late 1980's working clubs in Upstate New York. Life got in the way for a few decades and I left the world of the performing arts until I had a conversation with my somewhat intoxicated self at my birthday party in 2018. As a result of that conversation I decided to jump head first back into my acting career. Since that conversation I have performed in both stage and film productions in and around the greater Phoenix, Arizona area.
I act both on stage and screen. I am also available for voice over acting. Please see my resumé for the details of my experience and skills.
Be on the lookout for the release of two ASU Capstone Projects in which I appear. 'Under The Old Oak' and 'Needles' will be released in the next few weeks. Stay tuned for updates
