I've been attempting to tell stories for as long as I can remember and have been involved in many wonderful and flawed theater and film projects throughout my life. I'm the father of two beautiful teenagers, a boy and a girl. My interests are writing, filmmaking, directing theater, baking and experiencing life with an open heart. Currently I work on the TV show Mr. Robot and am directing a play called UNMASKED.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in connecting with people. Every stranger is a friend I haven't met yet! I'm a curious human.
