About Me

I'm an actor/performer/artist/poet etc. I'm SAG/AFTRA now and getting some decent work in the New England area due to tax credits for the film industry in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut with much thanks to folks like LDI Casting.I just finished shooting with Garth Donovan on his Indie feature "Cubby Knowles" which,for me,is a biting satire on these 24 hour connected and wired days.Still performing my one man show "Catholic (Surviving Abuse & Other Dead End Roads)"The book of poems from the show is now available at Amazon under the same name.
