About me as a performer…

My career as actor and musician spans over two decades of performing across Canada and the USA. A proud member of ACTRA and CAEA, I often combine musicianship with my acting, taking on roles of musicians playing their instruments on screen or live on stage.

Based out of Ottawa and fluently bilingual, I’m available to work in English or French and can work locally in Montreal and Toronto. I’m also always ready to travel (pandemic permitting), having toured to various states and provinces for a number of productions and with world music band, Troïka.

I trained in acting at Ryerson Theatre School before receiving a BA in drama and music from the University of Guelph and an MA in dramatic arts from the Université du Québec À Montreal.
