Why theater?: Theatre is what makes me happy, and why not choose a a career that makes you smile and challenges you to grow every day.
Who do you play in The Love Note?: Peter
Tell us about The Love Note: The Love Note is an amazing story about learning how to be comfortable in your own skin, and not just following what is thought to be "cool." Kids have it rough growing up these days, but this show proves that a simple note from a loved one can help get you through tough times.
What is it like being a part of The Love Note?: It has been an amazing experience thus far. It is a very positive, playful, and collaborative work environment, which is incredible when you are brining something like this to life.
What kind of theater speaks to you? What or who inspires you as an artist?: I love theatre that is artistic, but still has the razzle dazzle that appeals to someone with an untrained eye. Brilliant performers inspire me as an artist. Performers like Jason Mraz, Katie Mebane, and Michael C Hall. Performers who are true craftsmen.
