My Type
My type is the awkwardly charming leading man-adjacent.
The young men I play are charming, scrappy, often vulnerable, and usually good intentioned, and when given the chance, the audience can't help but fall in love with them... even if the other characters in the story do not. They are passionate to a fault, smarter than they let on, and break tension left and right when imbued with my self deprecating brand of comedy.
My Type is very similar to Actors like:
-Miles Teller (Whiplash/Top Gun: Maverick)
-Christopher Abbott (Catch 22/It Comes at Night)
-Patrick J. Adams (Suits)
-John Gallagher Jr. (The Newsroom/Short Term 12)
Some Adjectives to describe what I bring to the characters I play are:
-Passionate
-Earnest
-Mischievous
-Loyal
-Exciteable
-Vulnerable
I thrive in projects with fast-paced dialogue, smart complex material, and self-deprecating comedy:
(Succession, The Newsroom, Suits, Catch 22, A Few Good Men, Moneyball, The West Wing, The Big Short, etc.)
MY MISSION
My Mission is to Bring Goodness to the Characters
You wouldn't Expect to be Good.
My art is driven by an obsession with a question: "Who gets to tell our story? and how does that telling frame how we are received and remembered?" Because of this, I am drawn to the complex, deeply human and deeply flawed characters that often get written off in the telling of their stories and by the world around them.
The Conflicted Cop/Soldier
The Weird Student
The Ambitious Young Proffesional
The Prodigal Son
The Out-of-Control Best Friend
I am drawn to the responsibility of being a steward for these characters and their stories, giving my voice over to them. I hope by doing so I give the stories of those we write off a chance to be written back in.
