About Me

I was born in Texas, but I hardly call it home. I moved when I was very young, and by eleven I had landed in Cheyenne, Wyoming, where I spent the rest of my teenage years. As a kid, I always loved exploring and imagining; crafting stories and games before I even knew what creativity was. When a close friend suggested I try out a drama class my freshman year of high school, I hardly knew how my life would change in a short few months.

My first performance was a Samuel French play for kids called, "Wooing Wed Widing Hood." It was awful. I played three parts because our class was small, and I learned what a quick change was pretty quickly. Soon after, I had my first true performance: Brighton Beach Memoirs by Neil Simon. That's when I discovered the beauty of the artform, and what was so intoxicating to me about it: the unity it brings to the human soul. Family I hadn't seen in years, friends that I had been drifting apart form as the natural flow of time set our trajectories apart, people I didn't even know; all were one in this wonderful shared experience we call art. People from all cultures, all backgrounds, all walks of life can enjoy a single thing together, even if it's temporary in the moment.

After that, I was dead set on my goals. I was to be an actor.

At 18, I auditioned for the American Musical and Dramatic Academy of LA. I was accepted, and attended it in Hollywood over the following four years. It brought me close to a few of my mentors and favorite collaborators, and led to my Bachelor's Degree of Fine Arts.

Then I realized I can bring my goals to life in more than just that one way.

Thus I fell in love with filmmaking. And writing. And I co-founded a production company.

My goal is the same; to bring people together in the shared and beautiful experience of my art form, and by that endeavor, I continue to create in every way I can, every moment that I can.
