I am an actor, singer, director, author, and coach.

An Associate Professor and Head of Theater at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, I specialize in Acting, Voice, Speech and Dialects, and Musical Theatre. I am an Associate Teacher of Fitzmaurice Voicework®, and a narrator of audio books with ACX/Audible. I am also the creator of the Vibrant Channel Breathwork™ modality of holistic actor training. I currently work in theater, t.v. and film in New Mexico when I can fit projects in between my teaching and directing schedule.

I live in Santa Fe with my wife, Karina, and four waggy and hilarious dogs. I enjoy yoga, swimming, hiking, soaking in mineral pools, listening to podcasts and audio books, and watching moody detective series’, preferably with subtitles.  Every October I re-watch Twin Peaks Seasons 1-3 with donuts and damn good coffee. I also sing, narrate audio books, act in theater and film, teach and direct plays and musicals in the UNM Department of Theater and Dance.

A graduate of Oberlin College (BA) and the University of Washington (MFA), I have been seen on both small and regional stages in New York, Seattle, Edinburgh, Denver, San Francisco, Cleveland, Jacksonville, New Orleans, Santa Fe, and Moscow, ID. Previously, I have taught Acting, Movement and Voice at Oberlin Theater Institute, The University of Washington, Tulane University, CUNY Hunter College, and Juniata College.
