About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to get to South America. When? Soon.

ABOUT ME

I'm a filmmaker/actor living in Atlanta, GA. I was born in the South but I don't have an accent. I do quite a bit of improv comedy in Atlanta and around the US at festivals. I recently went to Hawaii and absolutely loved it. I quite enjoy shopping at the Farmer's Market and would be happy to take you there for lunch one day. It's delicious. I don't drink beer, but I love wine and whiskey, especially together. Just kidding...that's gross.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm an optimist.

Music, Movies, and Books

I adore the cinema. Whenever people ask me to name my favorite film, I give them two answers: L'avventura and Big Trouble in Little China.

I love Cormac McCarthy, Flannery O'Connor, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and books about film. I've read some Jim Thompson books recently and I like him, too.

I've been listening to Cat Power, Jose Gonzalez, Beirut and The Four Tops recently. I love Motown.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I won fourth place in a national grocery bagging competition in San Francisco when I was in college. I'm not joking.
