Hollywood

I spent 4 months living with lovers, haters, and friends. On one particularly stormy day, I received notice that I was being kicked out of my current living arrangement. I was given 24 hours notice. I had no money left and had no idea where I was going to go for shelter. Sensing things were amiss earlier in the week, I had started contacting the few friends I had left to call, but no one came through for me. I decided to ride the bus to Santa Monica and take a few pictures with my camera along the beach. I needed to unwind and center myself. As I stepped off the bus and started snapping pictures of an Ultimate Frisbee championship, the sun began to peek through the clouds and it stopped raining. My phone rang... It was the producers of HERE! Network's THE LAIR and they offered me role in their upcoming season (due out in September).

With filming finished on THE LAIR, I accepted a part in the Off-Broadway production of A BODY WITHOUT A HEAD. My friend George Carr called me the week before the production opened and asked me to fly out to NY and join the cast. Kevin Carrigan, of Calvin Klein, provided the wardrobe for the production. After our limited run I flew back to Los Angeles to start work on THE NEXT BIG THING, a rockin new 80s garage band musical. While in rehearsals for THE NEXT BIG THING I filmed a pilot with Director Jerry Zucker (Ghost, Airplane)

Along with THE NEXT BIG THING, the producers for the feature film ONE DEGREE signed me to play the leading role, Rick.
