Theatre Acting
Growing up I did some plays, usually with our church. Aside from biblical themes we did It's a Wonderful Life a few times, once as a radio play, others as full stage plays. Despite this I didn't really find acting until I was in my twenties. The first play I did as an adult was Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing with the Pacific Okinawan Players in which I played Borachio. I immediately caught the theatre bug and fell in love with live performance.
​
Some time later I ventured into the world of musical theatre, despite my lack of musical training. I learned so much during the run of Jekyll and Hyde the Musical with Red Phoenix Theatre in Alpharetta, Georgia. While part of the Ensemble I took up the role of Bisset the Apothecary. This production challenged me in unexpected ways and pushed me to seek out musical and vocal training.
​
In an effort to immerse myself in as much theatre as possible I began volunteering with Georgia Ensemble Theatre in Sandy Springs, Georgia and now serve as the Volunteer Coordinator for the company while I continue acting in the Atlanta area.

I will be moving to New York City in a few years for theatre acting.
Film and Television
On-Camera Acting is what drew me to acting with my first venture into the medium being the Star Wars Noir short film Night Errant written and directed by Donte Larry. During the long months spent on the project I learned stage combat, sword choreography, and spent a lot of time getting special effects makeup applied (pictured left).
While earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts Performing Arts from Savannah College of Art and Design I acted in dozens of student films. Thanks to the on-camera focus of the S.C.A.D. acting program I was also able to work on professional film sets while earning my degree. I got to be a zombie on a few episodes of Fear of the Walking Dead. I also worked on Hulu's The Girl From Plainville, Ava DuVerney's Origins, and had my first speaking role in a feature film in Clint Eastwood's Juror #2.
​
I love on-camera work and learning about everything that goes into transforming a script idea into the final product. I eventually want to direct in addition to acting once I've learned more,

While studying from greats like Isaiah Johnson, Craig Anton, and Alpha Tyler I honed my acting and auditioning skills. Outside of classes I acted in dozens of student films.. After transferring to the Atlanta Campus for my senior year I got involved with the Blackbox Theatre Club and took on the role of Biff in Death of a Salesman.
