Overview

  • Bio

    Born and raised in Dallas, Texas. I trained as a musician (percussion) from childhood through adolescence. After high school I moved to Boulder, Colorado to work as a Media Production Assistant for the non-profit organization Integral Institute. While in Colorado, I briefly studied at Naropa University and The Art Institute of Colorado, majoring in Music and then Media Arts and Animation, respectively. In January of 2007, I went on a month long hitchhiking journey around the Midwest and the South. During that time I decided to move to Chicago, where I currently reside, to study acting and comedy improv, and to create the art journal Polysemy with friend and composer Matthew Dallman.
