About Me

An east coast guy at heart living the west coast lifestyle...whatever that means. I've been a Venetian for a little over 2 years, having relocated from New York City. I'm a professional actor who was born and raised in New Jersey...southern NJ to be a little more specific.
I spent my childhood reading Proust, studying the periodic table of chemical elements and playing bingo with the elderly on Saturday mornings. Ok I'm lying, but I did ride dirt bikes, play soccer, go to the shore and bother my sister.
High school was a good time---sports, studies and extra-curricular activities kept me busy. Puberty could've been worse.
I attended Western Maryland College (now McDaniel College) where I earned a BA degree in Theatre/Communications. I've worked various jobs while pursuing my acting career; amusement park ride operator, go-kart manager, retail sales associate, waiter/bartender, substitute teacher & tennis coach.
