BIO
I began my acting journey in 1993, when I chose to leave stand-up comedy for something more stable: being an actor (insert laugh track here). In 1994 I did a play at Deep Cove Shaw Theatre, "You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown" playing the role of Snoopy. After that, I booked my first paid professional on camera acting job on February 2, 1996. It was a Maximizer corporate video produced by Shane Lunny Productions. Since then, I've booked a paid acting job every year since.
My biggest role to date was the character of Mr Koji in "Scary Movie 4", where I got to work with the eminently talented Ana Faris and met the iconic Chloris Leachman, as well as had the honor to be directed by none other than the amazing David Zucker of "Airplane" fame.
I taught my first acting class in the fall of 2006, when Linda Darlow asked me to sub for one of her on camera audition groups. Since I'd already been co leading the Performer's Mastery with her since 2003, we'd worked together long enough for her to trust me with her students. After that, in spring 2007 I was invited to teach at the original Schoolcreative on Cordova St, where I had my own cold read/on camera class on Monday nights. In the fall of 2007, I was then invited to be on staff as one of the teachers in their 6 month full time acting programs, where I taught on camera audition, scene study and improvisation.
When my stint at Schoolcreative ended in 2011, I began in earnest to teach from my home (my wife Bonnie and I bought our house in 2009, and I've had classes there since January 2010). I continue to teach on camera audition and offer a cold reading on camera audition group at my home, and I run the business of the Performer's Mastery. I also co teach the 2 Day Commercial Audition Workshop with Linda Darlow, which we offer 4 times a year.
Throughout all that, I've booked actor and principal roles on the various TV shows and movies and feature films shot locally in Vancouver. And in the 25 years I've been doing this, I plan to keep on trucking. My career has taken many turns and has undergone many incarnations, but through it all I'm still here.
And I plan to be at it for at least another 25 years or more.
