About

ABOUT Me!

​

Like Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise before me, I (a non-Tom) starred as George Gibbs in a high school production of Our Town. College happened. Then, I trained through Second City and UCB and subsequently performed suboptimal improv throughout numerous fire code violation-themed theaters in NYC. I wrote, cast, produced, and starred in a sold-out sketch comedy show in New York City, Casual Ambiguity. I also mistakenly graduated from the University of Chicago Law School. Afterward, I wrote and filmed a nearly award-winning comedy-horror short film, Hold The Mayo ("nearly" as in it screened near award-winning films). Apparently, not wanting to travel far to act, I created a 38-episode web series, There Are No Second Takes In Life…Take 2, with each episode filmed on location…in my apartment. I also wrote, directed, and produced, The Powerpuff Girls: The Teen Years.

​

My works have screened at such places as the L.A. Comedy Festival, L.A. Webfest, ATL Webfest, East Lansing Film Festival, New Haven International Film Festival, and Hamilton Film Festival.   

​

I'm a co-founder of I'm Okay Productions. In the Fall of 2024, I directed my first feature film, Muffled (currently in post production). Check out our trailer below!
