CURRENT MISSION

Traveling/Searching/Living/Observing/Absorbing/Moving from Coast to Coast on my motorcycle. (To See America Right)

ABOUT ME

I am an actor, who was born and raised in Tulsa, Oklahoma USA. Growing up in Tulsa, I was surrounded by booming suburban development, consumerist lifestyle, and fundamentalist Christianity. As soon as I began making my own decisions in life, it became quite clear that this was not the life for me. So I packed my bags and moved to a more accepting and earth conscious environment of Olympia Washington. There I attended a weird little liberal arts school called The Evergreen State College. Evergreen gave me the freedom to choose my own educational path, and I soon found myself acquiring a taste for the strange and the absurd. I have been an actor for most of my life in both theatre and film, but academia opened me up to the more artful side of performance. I started to create performance art and experimental theatre events that drew from my experiences as a child growing up in middle America. My art comments on the the American corporate/consumer lifestyle by exploiting and exaggerating suburban aesthetics and "culture," as well as interrogating the rituals of the modern day businessman.

PHILOSOPHY

I live to communicate and share my experience with the world, and in turn let the world communicate and share its experience with me.

教，学，和分享

This is hard. So often you never know what you can learn from somebody, or even that you have learned something, until after they have passed. Everyone carries with them knowledge to some degree, and I don't think you can predict what you'll be able to teach someone or vice versa.
