A long time ago, a girl I thought I loved went away. I was crushed and found myself at a stand still. Then, one day a man I knew asked me and my friends if we wanted to try out for a play he was doing at a theater in El Cerrito. The play was Mr. Roberts. They needed guys to play the crew. When my friends heard that they had to give up Friday and Saturday nights for six weeks plus rehearsals, they were gone. However, I stayed and went on to meet lots of ladies (my main objective), played some wonderful roles, worked with great directors and fabulous people, and along the way developed a love and respect for the craft of acting. In that time I became a member of the Screen Actors Guild and AFTRA, (winning my cards in 1981) and through my agents in San Francisco, have been cast in National Commercials, local television dramas along with local and regional commercials, while continuing theater work and study. During this time, I married and was blessed with a daughter. (Who just recently bless me with a grandson.)Yet, shortly after the birth of my daughter, I had to leave the business and find more stable employment. But, always deep down inside me there was the pull of the craft. Fortunately, unfortunately, mercifully, for all members of the cast, that run came to a close. As the saying goes. “When one door closes another opens.” I met another lady. A lady named Robin (that's right) Although I wasn’t looking for the love of my life, I found her. I moved to San Francisco and started and new great life with her along with restarting my career.                                                                         

In these past few years I have been able to direct that career to the pleasure of working more in film. With Rory Dean (Once Beautiful Past) and being able to study with David Keith of the San Francisco School of Digital Film. While still holding on to my bay area roots I have ventured to LA meeting and working with more wonderful people, studying under men the likes of Mark Tishner at TVI and Jeffery Brooks of the Actors Creative Workshop. Now a member of the Actors Network, and an attendee of every CD workshop I can get into. And with all that. Now being represented by Pinkerton Models/Morgan 2 Talent of Hollywood!

It takes a lot of time and a lot of miles and It may not be the most common path traveled? But it’s mine and with the love and support of my wife and my friends. I’m making it work and so-far? It’s working pretty good!

Thank you for your time.
