My life was headed down a straight path. I grew up in Detroit playing football and baseball and then graduated with a degree in Finance from Indiana - I thought I was headed for Wall Street. But the thought of that didn’t sit right with me, a guy with a big imagination and bigger ambitions. Acting uncovered a sense of adventure and challenge that I had always been looking for.

I always finish what I start, so I signed up for acting classes while completing my degree, and after graduation I decided to pursue acting full-time. Since then, I’ve done whatever it takes. I drove from Indiana to Detroit to work on an independent film just to get my foot in the door. After moving to LA, I worked 20 hour days going from one set to another while continuing to take acting classes. My car is ready to give up, I’m not.

That’s how I approach this. With relentlessness and grit. Acting, to me, is about discovering truths. In portraying everything from the romantic lead to the rebellious outcast, it’s about finding what’s real in a moment and bringing it to life.
