BIO:
Professionally trained singer and actor with a foundation in vocal excellence under the tutelege of renowned instructor, the late Andy Anselmo, whose students included Mandy Patinkin and Liza Minelli. Throughout my career as a performer, I have been privileged to bring to life an array of iconic characters that showcase versatility and depth. Notable regional credits include commanding performances as the title role in "The Who's Tommy," the wise and venerable Old Deuteronomy in "Cats," the complex George in "Aspects of Love," and the authoritative Captain Smith in "Titanic." 

Have also worked as a professional writer for the past two decades and enjoy reviewing national and regional productions. Residing within the vibrant artistic community of Richmond, VA, I find inspiration in the balance of family life with my wife and our three sons, while continuing to pursue my passion for the stage.
