He has appeared in many TV shows, feature films, and commercials. He is a member of Actors Equity, the Dramatists Guild, and the Screen Actors Guild. He made the leap from acting to teaching several years ago when he received his Masters degree in Theatre/Playwriting, and is thrilled to be in his second year as part of the wonderful Rye Neck school district, where he teaches four different acting courses. He also teaches Technical Theatre, Public Speaking, is the Chorus director, the Thespians advisor, and the A Cappella advisor.
