About Me

One of my passions in life is the wonderful world of theatrical entertainment. I have had the fortunate opportunity of knowing how the best of entertainment can move, change and heal us. I am interested in collaborating with innovative professionals to create memorable performances. For over 15 years I've been in the entertainment business as an actor, director, and acting coach. I've worked as a talent agent, Assistant Director of a Tri-State Talent Agency as well as an Academy for Performing Arts in Southern California. My current professional projects include; directing 2 one hour films for Northern Kentucky University, producing Broadway Workshops with Broadway Star Mark Ledbetter, and performing in a staged version of a scene from the movie "9 Lives" playing the role actress Glenn Close originated, for a directing competition in March. Recently I directed the World Premiere of "In the Vise of Evils" at the Aronoff Center, and a short film I starred in called "Method of Deception" premiered at a festival competition in New York. I currently teach acting at Northern Kentucky University and work as a private acting coach. I am represented by two talent agencies in the tri-state, working in TV/Film and commercials. I have performed in over 150 stage productions and directed over 50 theatrical productions, including many world premieres.
