About Me

I am a performer. I work as an actor on the stage and in front of a camera. The last six months of my life I have been touring with various circuses and working as a clown. I make my money doing this, though sometimes it is scarce, and I move from rich to poor and back again very quickly. I love to work out and have recently become a proficient tumbler and professional acrobat. I have many friends through out the world who I love and a good group here in chicago that occupy my time. I travel and have spent a good amount of time on the road. I am thinking about moving to LA and trying my luck out there... we shall see...just going to spend the winter here in chicago, or the whole year. Am here to develope an act and finish a body of work...Curse of the Lechusa

Music:

Velvet REvolver, Guns and Roses, Alice in Chains, Certified Bannanas, Hip Hop, Country, I love me some George Strait, and KEnney Chesney. Will always enjoy a good techno mix and of course the Cure, and all those great eighties punk bands. I love all music, but tend not to enjoy the teen pop shit so much.....

Movies:

I love all films. Look for CURSE OF THE LECHUSA...Our very own film. Lately I have seen City of God, will always love Tim Burtons stuff, and Copola. Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars, of course. I just saw a really scarey movie, High Tension; the ending was stupid but it was suspenseful. I think Jim Carey is the new Chaplin. Heaven's FAll which hasn't come out yet, but I worked on the film. I love it all.

Television:

I don't have cable, but I love Arrested Development, Sopranos, The Shield, Family Guy, Simpsons, and most of LAw and Order... Will watch a Novella or two to keep my spanish up. Oh, Rome and OZ... I have a new favorite show though, It is called LAZYTOWN. I am a huge fan of this kids show that promotes healthy eating and exercise...

Books:

I read a variety of books. I just finished Eragon, which is curriously alot like Lord of the Rings. I am a total nerd and have been reading the Simarillion. I liked the Hanibal LEcter series. Because of middle school, I will always be a fan of the Vampire Chronicles. All the classics, save a few. I am a performer, and have been forced to read all the acting books on method and technique, but among the many, I recommend to any actor that they read Artaud's The Theatre and its Double, and Letters to a Young Poet by Rainer Marie Rilke...

Heroes:

My heroes are Chaplin, Bill Irwin, Buster KEaton and the millions of unnamed clowns who worked a stage or a ring before and up till Vaudville ferociously playing for the joy of an audience. I look up to the great actors of our age. Especially Kevin Spacey. Love De Niro and PAcino, and Jim Carey. Brad Pitt and Lawrence Fishburne.
