- My Story:
- Since 1997, I have amassed a variety of experience directing independent films as well as theatrical productions and commercial projects. Used Books, a short film I wrote and directed, was an official selection for the 2007 Rhode Island International Film Festival. Under my direction The Pitch, a 48 Hour Film Project, won awards for Audience Favorite and as 2nd Runner Up. In 2008, I simultaneously directed two films—Rashomon in Pear Shape (horror) and Pear Shaped Rashomon (thriller)—for the 48 Hour Film Project. Some of my other film projects include Half-Written and Folded in Two. Commercially, I have directed two advertisements for a ZipCar contest and well as other projects.
Theatrically, I most recently directed five award-winning scripts from the Rhode Island International Film festival’s ScriptBiz.08—an annual conference for screenwriters. From 1997 through 2000, I created and directed Reality Check—a theatre troupe at Franklin Pierce University that presents engaging skits on teen issues for local schools and community centers. In 2005, I returned to Franklin Pierce University and have since held the position of Professional Coordinator and Directing Mentor of summer theatre workshops for the cast of Reality Check.
I continue to develop my acting skills through performances in feature and independent films, as well as theatrical works. I have completed many creative roles in films such as Casting Doubt, The Miskatonic Acid Test, McMulligan's Hovel, and Nun of That. At the age of twenty-one, I starred in Blood Wedding—an off West End theatrical performance in London. For four years, I was a lead actor in the Providence-based dinner theatre troupe, Murder On Us.
Finally, I teach acting classes for children throughout New England for Performing Arts Programs and filmmaking to youth in Woonsocket, Rhode Island through NeighborWorks Blackstone River Valley.
I am a 2000 graduate (Bachelor’s Degree in Mass Communication and a minor in Theatre Arts) of Franklin Pierce University in Rindge, New Hampshire and currently reside in Providence with my fiancée Kerri and our super rabbit named Emily.
