About Me

I am a St. Louis actor and stuntman (AEA/SAG). I've worked for a handful of local theatres, but what I really want to do is wait tables. Stage Manager, carpenter, prop-builder, framer, fight combatant, bullwhip-cracking, truck driving, sword wielding, hockey playing, rollerblading, lover of all things Cyrano and hater of all things Andrew Lloyd-Weber.
