ABOUT ME

I'm interested in new opportunities! I grew up in the midwest and retain some of that down-to-earth quality. I've been in NYC for several years and there's no other place I'd rather be (unless traveling around the world). I'm particularly interested in the Green revolution and incorporating new knowledge of alternative fuels into a new format of documentary. I know A LOT about nightlife and fun stuff in NYC so, if you're curious, just ask!

PHILOSOPHY

I think we should all do our best to be kind, successful and contribute to the greater good of mankind. I believe in synergy and that the world could be a better place if we helped one another and did our best to conquer fear, hatred, prejudice or suspicion of our fellow compadres on this small planet we share. I believe in love, learning and self-made destiny.

Music, Movies, and Books

The best movies I've seen within the past year are: "The Counterfeiter," "In Bruges," "Towelhead," "Transiberian" and "No Country for Old Men." I don't read as much as I should and I definitely need to discover some new music. Shoot me your ideas. :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wow...too much to say in this short space, I think. I was an officer in the Navy and was deployed to the Mediterranean for 5 months on an amphib. I helped extinguish a fire on a freighter out to sea and also got to see a weightlifter and keg topside on a British ship! I've lived in NYC ever since where I started out at Denis Leary's production company as an intern and now work for myself as a spokesmodel. I've been to loads of parties, cool places and met a diverse range of bright, fun and ambitious people. I've partied with P. Diddy, checked out the scene at Sundance & Cannes, hiked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back up in a day and skiied the Austrian Alps. I still always feel there's so much more to see and do... ;-)

Teach, Learn, Share

Ok, as an actor and model, a little advice... Keep your chin level in your photos. Most people look better straight on or on a slight angle from the top down than vice versa. An up-the-neck shot is usually not flattering.
