My interests as both an actor and a writer tend to lean towards the offbeaten. Rich, eccentric, often times unfortunate characters who "unicycle on the edge of the abyss." (Thanks Jon Polito for that quote.) I'd like to play: Deep south, hillbilly, odd duck, artisticly and tempermentally- disturbed, sweethart, sensative mother fuckers who can plant flowers all day long, then hop on their Harley, get drunk and kick your ass!
I am interested in meeting established producers for possible development of our original screenplays. I am also interested in auditioning for both studio and independent feature films. As well as musicians who may be willing to score or provide original recordings for our upcoming projects.
