What is your job on this show?
Actor.

Where were you born? Where were you raised? Where did you go to school?
I was born in Syracuse, NY, but grew up mostly in Northern California. I studied acting at NYU's Tisch School of The Arts and The Atlantic Acting School.

Who is more important in the theater: the actor, the playwright, or the director?
What's so wonderful about theater is that it takes everyone putting in all their effort in order for a show to succeed. I think everyone plays their part equally. When a true collaboration comes together, it's a real pleasure.

Are there any cautions or warnings you’d like to make about the show (e.g., not appropriate for little kids)?
When seeing the show, make sure you don't have a full bladder or you might pee on yourself. That's never really a good thing. Well...unless....no, no, it's bad.

Which cartoon character would you identify your show with: Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Mickey Mouse, Marge Simpson?
I think The Comic Book Guy from The Simpsons would get a kick out of it.

Who are your heroes?
People who help their fellow man without the need of gaining anything for themselves.
