Some people are really fortunate and can do the things they love for a living. Sadly, I am not one of those people. Much like the unwashed masses I work so that I can do the things that I love, which is why you aren't going to get much about my day job in this biography. Instead I'd like to focus on the things that I am passionate about.
I have a BFA in Theater with an Acting Concentration from Pace University. I am member of the SAG/AFTRA and have been in shows and movies like Law and Order: CSI, Salt, Avatar the Last Air Bender and Running Wilde. I have been doing Theater in New York City since the late 90's...musicals, children's theater, New York Fringe...you name it, I've done it or auditioned for it.
I've recently started to delve into stand-up comedy and found mild success having performed several times for Caroline's Comedy club here in New York.
I have been gaming since I was a teenager and LARPing for over 16 years. If it plugs in, comes in a box, or is played out in the wilderness I have either tried it, run it, played it, or read up enough on it to do any of the aformentioned things.
I'm a Tenor/Baritone and although I am not in any musical groups, my Evil Twin, Celcius Farenheit, has managed to worm his way into New York's Premire Nerd A Capella Group: Choirfly. Thanks to him, I am unable to join their ranks, but one day his come uppance shall be realized. *Fist Shake*
My current pet Project is Aurum, a Steampunk themed Live Action Roleplaying Game that I am writing with some like minded individuals.
