I wrote a detective story called “Lagoon” for a playwriting class I was taking a while back. I directed everyone else in the class to perform it and played the lead myself, emulating the style of 1940’s Phillip Marlowe.
I was in second grade. And I’ve wanted to do nothing else since.
Since then I’ve been an actor, director, writer, and teacher, working in New York, London, Los Angeles, and places in between. I’ve taught acting classes in middle schools, youth filmmaking classes in the U.S. Virgin Islands, and have been a personal writing coach for clients for many years.
If I was born with a super-power, it's to brainstorm wildly creative ideas and concepts by collaborating with others. There are infinite ways to tell a story and I love shifting perspective and focus to find the target for the kind of project each of my clients and collaborators are looking for.
I’ve written and directed for stage and screen including “Blackboxing” and “Angel’s Flight” at the Hollywood Fringe (both of which won “Best Cabaret”), “Poker Night” which won “Best Comedy Short” at the Culver City Film Festival, and “Romeo and Juliet In Hell” which was nominated for four awards (including Best Director) at the 2019 LA Valley Theater Awards.
Currently, my film “Advent” (with Michael Onofri) is in development at LBI.
I love working with writers because I have looked at story through varied lenses and never fail to get excited when finding a way to bring a story to life. Everyone’s needs are different, everyone’s story is different, and everyone’s process is different – and I love to facilitate that.
I did the BFA thing at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts (Playwright’s Horizons), got a Certificate in Shakespeare at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London, and am a graduate and former Associate Producer at Director’s Lab West.
"Raiders of the Lost Ark" is the greatest movie of all time, and if I can't be on a Disney Cruise, I want to be on set.
