"I found him on Craig's List."
MY MOM​
I was launched via proverbial cannon into a passionate relationship with clown, music, theatre, and film early on in life. Naturally, that led me to spend thousands of dollars on a B.A. in Theatre Arts from Bethel University followed by innumerable years in debt, smiling my way through countless interviews and auditions, rehearsals and jobs, instagram posts and film shoots. But that's the price you pay for passion, am I right?

I consider myself a creator of enthusiastic, collaborative, and playful art. ​Life is too short and painful not to enjoy simplicity and absurdity. I love scaring my friends by falling up/down the stairs and running into walls, playing the ukulele until I forget what time it is, and dancing in my car at stop lights. Everyone has these things, and I hope to use the awareness of personal quirks to generate more interesting and authentic performances that inspire people to be themselves.

"I wanna find him in a happy meal ​​and trade him with my friends."
BETH GRIMES, INTERNATIONAL CLOWN HALL OF FAME

​
I enjoy playing with independent films in any stage of production. Particularly light-hearted films. They're my jam. I've worked as an actor, writer, director, videographer, editor, and producer so I understand what goes into every step. I am signed with commercial talent agencies, NUTS ltd. and Moore Creative Talent. Hit them up if you want me for yo' commercial.

I'm creating things all the time! Check out my
Instagram or episodes of the weekly web series, Light Force, or my upcoming short film We Are Kickball.

I dibble-dabble in graphic design, video production, illustration, and web design as well! In fact, I made this whole website myself (proud chest-puff). I do a lot with the website and brand of ACR Homes. Take a look at some of my work:

Classes​

"Thanks to you, I know I should probably be an engineer. I guess that's good."
ALEX, 5TH GRADER
​
I am a teacher for all ages, shapes, and sizes! Students require respect and attention in order to really thrive. As a college graduate, I spent a lot of time being bored out of my mind, so I came up with a way NOT to do that. I'd love to teach a few classes with you or perform at your event. Here are a few examples of my most requested classes:
Doctor Who, Sherlock, & Newsies. Frankly, anything where the characters have an accent that I don’t have, I love. Dialects ranging from Brooklyn, South-ern, Standard British, Cockney, Scottish, Irish, & French have fascinated me because of their unique roles in telling stories. Let’s play with them so you can go out and act like you’re from Europe while at the grocery store!
Adventure begins with discovery, and action begins with conflict! Lots and lots of conflict. In this class, we explore how to safely create a scene where people bring their fisticuffs “Up and at ‘em, see?” Engage in hand-to-hand combat and sword fighting, with an emphasis on creating a compelling story.  Safety first, but also learn to make your partner look awesome while taking a hit. Bring your fists ready for punching!
When I was a kid, I couldn’t throw a ball to save my life. Object manipulation is still one of my most pathetic/humorous skills. Juggling seemed absolutely out of the question for me for a long time. I’ve put countless hours of practice into it and it’s still challenging, but it’s a challenge that has taught me how to learn anything. Join me in learning how to juggle; and how to do pretty much anything else.
Doctor Who, Sherlock, & Newsies. Frankly, anything where the characters have an accent that I don’t have, I love.
