Bio

After discovering my love for the theater in high school, I have studied the craft of acting for film and the stage for close to four decades.

I had the fortune of being trained exclusively for five years in Vancouver with the great actor, playwright, Bill Meilen, professor emeritus in acting and theater.

Presently, I continue to develop my acting career with auditions, scene study classes, workshops, and performing in community theater. 

Inspired by Mel Blanc since I was a child, and later, Robin Williams, my vocal training has been directed toward animation and narration. I have also attended technical school for television and radio announcing.
