My first foray into the public eye occurred when I was identified by my hometown newspaper, the Nashua Telegraph, as the county's most knowledgeable and devoted fan of the film Titanic. The interview and subsequent notoriety caused me to develop my first taste for the trappings of celebrity, thus presaging my eventual westward trajectory.
After landing various starring and supporting roles in plays and films at the collegiate level, my success and growing reputation drove me to venture to Los Angeles, where I was told on good authority that a chronic shortage of actors had resulted in a surplus of part-time service industry jobs and always-pleasant open roads.
Upon arrival, I enrolled at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts to further hone my repertoire of acting, music, voice and movement development.
Aside from the drama that life experience enlists upon you to hone in on for future parts; additional experience includes study of the Meisner Technique at the JoAnne Baron / DW Brown Studio, on-camera commercial audition technique at Killian McHugh's Commercial Workshop, improvisation and sketch comedy at the Groundlings School, stand-up comedy at Flappers University and improv classes at UCB in NYC.
I enjoy acting because I enjoy feeling. Acting is simply just being. Life brings us all on such a rollercoaster of emotions and I truly enjoy feeling every single kind of emotion. Really feeling the joys, the laughter, the pain, the sadness; how these emotions reach every single part of one’s body. I enjoy working through these various feelings. Understanding why and how these emotions occur. I want to become a character and dive headfirst into their being and feel; really feel their emotions. My goal is to then, in turn, translate those emotions onto the audience so that they can feel as well. I hope that one day, I’ll be able to put what I feel out into the world for the world to see and most importantly…feel.
