About Me

I am a professional actor working out of the Austin/Dallas Texas market. I have been a member of SAG since 1996 when I joined through my role in Robert Duvall's "The Apostle". I am currently represeted by Collier Talent in Austin Texas.
I am married and my wife Linda is a frequent partner in my acting and screenwriting projects. We currently have several projects in the works including an indy feature length film and a documentary.
We left the crowded environs of Los Angeles in 2002 and settled into a secluded area of the Texas hill country. We are VERY glad we did!
My favorite film to work on so far would have to be "The Apostle", though my scene was cut, working for 6 weeks with a really great crew headed by Robert Duvall was a wonderful experience.
My most recent project is a role in the TV series Friday Night Lights. See my blog for the details!

There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.
