About Me

Just another one of those dime-a-dozen actors, day job at a bookstore, musician at night, always tryin' to squeeze that perfect tone, that otherworldly squeal outa my guitars, turning it up to 11 and trying to raise the dead with the bone-breaking nuclear distortion of my VOX, trying to slice the moon in half with the bloody screams of my demons, ultimately taking a deep breath and playing the blues with what's left of my heart...But when I'm not doing that, I'm a comedian! Really, I belong to a great improv theater group called "Off The Cuff", going on 4 years now, and I can't even imagine life without them. Based out of the Mesa Arts Center here in blazing hot Arizona, these are my friends and family and certainly the single biggest source of love in the galaxy! Ah, how lucky I am to have found them...

My Interests

Improvisational theater, making comedies and horror films( either side of the camera is fine!) All my guitars (but I'm rather partial to my Les Paul and my Telecaster), space, snakes, So Cal beaches, pretty barefoot goofy girls (long blond hair a plus), and of course- motorcycles.. yeah,baby!

I'd like to meet:

A gaggle of talking catfish crawling around on their whiskers and complaining that food on the bottom just ain't what it used to be. A wubber babybubberbuggy bumper maker.
