I moved to Chicago from NYC where I graduated from NYU with a playwriting degree. I've been working as an actor since I was a kid, in all mediums, including writing my own works. Since arriving here I was cast in an indie film headed for the festivals, was at Second City in Advanced Improv for 2 semesters and currently I am in Charna Halpern's class at IO.

While in NYC I was cast in the 24hr Film Festival and worked at LaMama, The Pantheon, Todo Con Nada (Obie Winner Aaron Beale). If I have a claim to "fame" it's that I shared the screen in a short scene with just me and Danny DeVito in Ivan Reitman's film "Junior".
