I am a professional actor, singer, and director, as well as an aspiring writer. I am now employed full-time at the nation's largest for-youth theater company, Children's Musical Theatre San Jose. Creatively, I have helmed half a dozen pieces of various sizes; I have assisted several prestigious master directors at world-famous theatres, and was an artistic associate/creative consultant on a handful of additional projects. As an actor, I have performed in more than thirty-five plays and musicals, a dozen commercials, a handful of television/film/hosting and industrial projects, and have worked as a Jazz Singer on the San Francisco Bay. I hold a BFA in Directing from Roosevelt University in Chicago and an Acting Certificate from the Pacific Conservatory of the Performing Arts, in Santa Maria, California. I am a native of San Jose, California, and recently celebrated my two year wedding anniversary with my wife, Anna. My long term professional goals are to continue working in various mediums as a creative artist throughout my life, to start and run my own commercial theatre company and training program, and to work as an artistic director at theatres around the globe. Before returning to San Jose and the children's theater company I grew up doing shows with, I worked as a freelance Commercial Casting Session Director with various clients in Hollywood, and did some recruiting in the corporate realm from time to time.
