Who am I?
On stage I've been trusted with technically challenging leading-man roles. I've studied and taught stylized movement, heightened text, voice & speech, singing, stage combat, improv, dance, and acting technique. Nothing makes me happier than working out precise blocking for a farce or tearing apart the complexities of a Shakespearian verse.
Collaboration, Character, Movement, Speech, Specificity, Commitment, and REHEARSAL
Rehearsing a scene from The 39 Steps with Katie Cunningham.
Directed by Kate Buckley, with David Kortemeier and David Alley as the Clowns. We sold out the run for the Clarence Brown Theatre and created one of the most exciting shows I've ever been a part of.
May, 2022, King Arthur in Camelot at Studio Tenn in Franklin, Tennessee
RENT was a big part of it
I took the 11A in from Jersey to sleep on the street for those front row $20 rush tickets. After my undergrad at Syracuse University my dream came true too early and I played Mark in the National, Canadian, and Japan Tour (2003-2004).
Artist in Residency
I found an artistic home at the Clarence Brown Theatre in Knoxville (of all places), where I was able to perform some phenomenal roles as well as direct, choreograph movement, coach dialect, and produce.
