A chance meeting with a veteran actor inspired him to start taking formal classes, which lead to intensive study of the art. His first experience with film was with the short film team, Amalgamated Grommets, winning multiple awards over several consecutive years in San Diego and Los Angeles...including the hit 'The Heiress Lethal', a film noir comedy, which was chosen to screen at the International Cannes Film Festival.
