Whenever my friends introduce me to new people, they always lead with “He was in ‘Sex and The City’!” as if those 60 seconds are my biggest accomplishment. Besides dating themselves (and me), they are really doing me a disservice as I have done much bigger things in acting, like playing opposite the late Burt Reynolds - another 60 seconds of fame! LOL

 

Among my credits are Broadway hits like Hair, Grease, Pippin, and Cinderella. However, my lifelong dream was Che in the musical Evita, famously immortalized by Antonio Banderas and Madonna in the movie version. That dream became a reality when I landed the role in the European Tour production, which spanned a year and earned me and the show some rave reviews! But just carrying the show wasn’t enough for an ambitious person like me. Since the tour also included german-speaking countries (Germany, Switzerland, Austria), I had to master the show in both English and German (which I didn’t really know). Switching between languages on a dime was quite the challenge, as our original schedule of staying in German-speaking countries for a short, uninterrupted period of time would often change. 

 

Although acting has been my passion ever since I was a child, it was also the catalyst that made me an entrepreneur and a startup founder! After all the success in acting, I decided to start a production company that would disrupt producing and storytelling. Besides focusing on immersive customer experience, the startup would also be dedicated to nurturing, creating and educating new talent.

I was fortunate to have worked with many Broadway, Hollywood and European stars, but what made me the happiest and most proud was giving opportunities to young, then unknown talent who otherwise wouldn’t have been given a chance. Many of those performers are now famous artists, paying it forward.
