ABOUT ME...
Imagination has always been my best attribute. Growing up, I busied myself with projects of all sorts -- art, literature, science -- but as an adult I've narrowed my focus to pursue my number-one love, story-telling.
QUICK FACTS…
• Originally from Monroeville, Alabama > lived in Los Angeles, California for 16 years > as of 2019, a resident of Atlanta, Georgia.
• BA in Studio Art (focus in painting & sculpture) from the University of Alabama (1998-2002) > Film and Theater minors > 4-year member of the UA Forensics Council (speech & debate) > High School: Alabama School of Fine Arts
• 2017 graduate of EI School of Professional Makeup, with a focus in SPECIAL FX MAKEUP > 14-year self-taught hobbyist who decided to learn the trade properly from the ground up.
• ART DEPARTMENT - cross-trained non-44, non-479 set dresser, art P.A., props asst. and art swing on commercials, unscripted shows, print, and features (pays the bills while allowing me to use my education).
• As a WRITER, I've dabbled in spec features, spec sitcoms, shorts, comic books and sketches (mostly self-produced). Longtime principle contributor to Temporal Semantics, the official "Killer Weed 2" blog.
• As a sometime FILMMAKER, director of new media shorts like "Arm Wrestling Machine" (& sketch-fare such as "Eat-Down" & "Monster Makeover").
• ACTOR - independent ("Black, White & Read", "Zenith") - various new media ("Zombie Roommate", "Dead Hooker", "The Stacheman"). A nutty character type; rarely the straight man. Mostly channeling my on-camera talents into self-produced sketches.
