Recently appeared as Orsino in "Twelfth Night" at Shakespeare's Globe in London, as Stanley Stubbers in "One Man, Two Guvnors" at Florida Studio Theatre, as Hellicanus in "Pericles" with Passion in Practice at the Savannah Music Festival, and will appear this summer with New York Classical Theatre. I've worked on dozens of world premiere plays and musicals as well as classical work (from Shakespeare to Voltaire) and on both sides of the camera in independent films and web series. BFA, Drama from NYU in 2009; Actors' Equity Association (the professional actors union) member since 2009. I've taught at the Atlantic Theater Company, the Dallas Children's Theater, and for Junior Players, and coached actors privately for video auditions with my company, Astoria Video Auditions. I'm also a director (for film and stage) and a playwright -- my most recent play was an official selection of the New Works Festival at Kitchen Dog Theatre in Dallas, TX and was a semi-Finalist for the acclaimed Eugene O'Neill National Playwrights Conference. You can view an acting resume on my website, and I can provide a more in depth background on my training and my experience teaching and coaching if needed. Thank you!
