I’ve been part of the entertainment industry since the 1980s — working in front of the camera as an actor, behind it as a line producer, and more recently, on the runway and in print as a model since 2022. Over the years, I’ve helped bring countless creative visions to life, both through my production work and by coaching emerging talent.

As an instructor at Stonestreet Studios, I had the privilege of teaching students from NYU’s prestigious Tisch School of the Arts, where I led classes on “The Business of Show.” Because for me, entertainment isn’t just a job — it’s a lifelong calling.

In what I like to call my Golden Years as a legit actor, I became fascinated by the world of commercial acting. I figured, why not embrace the AARP card? Turns out, it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I quickly became a go-to for wealth management firms, pharmaceutical brands, and active senior campaigns. I made money, had fun — and learned a lot.

That real-world experience became the foundation for my Commercial Acting Workshops, which I’ve been teaching for over a decade. More recently, I’ve begun working with models who are being sent out for commercials but often don’t know the basics — how to slate, how to break down copy, or how to bring their authentic personality to the camera.

That’s where I come in. And I love every minute of it.
