Ok, well, I’m an actor that specialises in creature performance under heavy makeup, prosthetics, suits and
even motion capture. I have played well over 50 monsters in films, TV & commercials. I
have also played numerous “humans” and have done a bunch of voice-over work as well. So I’m
not exclusive to playing monsters, I just love it! Non-human roles are my favourite characters to
play. I first got into acting in 1998 when my 8th grade drama teacher suggested that I try out for the high
school musical of Oklahoma! From then on, I was hooked. Like most performers, one little taste
of the arts is all it takes to change the path you’re on forever. After that first play, I did two
musicals a year and was in the school’s Show Choir for all 4 years of high school. Then I was in a
band for a while and acted in a few student films in college. After that I moved to Los Angeles and
started working behind the scenes as crew. I acted in a few small projects here and there but I
was focused on getting my feet on the ground monetarily with crew work. Then after focusing on
that for about 5 years, I finally made a decision to get back into performing. I’ve always loved it
and I had to get back into something I was passionate about. And that is what lead me to here
talking with you guys!
Acting aside, I’ll tell you a little about me personally. I love cats. I have two currently and they are
the greatest things in the world. I donate food, litter and cat beds to the shelters near me. Very
recently I raised money at a convention and donated it all to the same shelter I got my cat Zira
from. (So if you donated, thank you!) I love watching sci-fi and horror films with my wife. We love
to travel and go on hikes, wine tasting… we LOVE wine. I listen to a lot of audio books. My
favourites are Star Wars Expanded Universe. I’m currently listening to the Darth Bane trilogy, it’s
extremely good!
