Born in Liberal Kansas, 1985

Growing up I was the quiet kid, straight A student who could have a great time by myself.  About time high-school hit I grew a personality and broke out of my shell. I’ve been entertaining ever since.  I was voted Mr. Fun and Mr. Unique by the time I graduated.

My first big goal in life that I can remember was when I saw Kris Musgrave and his band play the talent show at our high school.  I had never even liked music until I heard them play.  It was more than the music too, they got the crowd going, had great stage presence…I was hooked!  I said, “that’s what I’m gonna do.”  So I got me a guitar and the world was my stage!  Been playing guitar since I was about 13, still writing, recording and performing to this day.

Got into the acting scene in high school as well, 4 years of "The Play" was so much fun.  It was just another chance to be on stage, so I took it!  I've been making home-made films with my friends for as long as I can remember, we would always go out and be doing something funny, stupid, or illegal and putting it into our next movie.

I started doing stand up comedy when I was 18, I watched all the stand ups on TV and I got hooked.  I said, “that’s what I’m gonna do.” So I grabbed a mic and performed just about anywhere I could.

I got lucky in January of 06’. Things were dragging along up until that point. I was going to have to make a choice between more college and a real job Vs. Starving trying to become a comedian.  I signed up for a convention in South Carolina called AMTC, (American Models and Talent Convention)  I went mainly pursuing music but instead ended up winning the Stand Up Comedy division.  I landed a Manager from this, who then got me an audition with an agency in Los Angeles. I made a good impression and got in with the “Commercial and Voice-Over” agent.

So I didn’t hesitate a minute longer. My bags were packed and I was out the door leaving Podunk behind. So here I am now in sunny CA living the dream! I’m going on auditions throughout the week trying to make a little money and dig deeper into the business. We’ll see where the good lord takes me next!
