Why do I act? 

Acting is my religion. It keeps me honest, vulnerable, and always learning. Like church, the theater, whether on film or on stage, is one of the last sacred places where people gather to experience and share stories about our humanity.

It is where my two favorite things intersect: learning and teaching. As an actor, I get to explore the world deeply and then step onto a stage or in front of a camera and offer that exploration to others. Every night, I am both student and storyteller.

These stories remind us that we are never alone. That shared experience of witnessing, feeling, and recognizing ourselves in someone else is profoundly powerful to me.
