About me

I am a perpetual student of acting, versed and disciple-d in the Stanislavski system. As a developing and growing actor, I’m eternally open to self and artistic exploration. “BE”ing open and receptive to opportunities offered to me, provided these same opportunities will offer me the chance to “DO” projects that will allow me to “HAVE” the personal and artistic growth in my endless pursuit for the purest form of artistic expression.

Currently, I am studying acting here in the greater Pacific Northwest (The Meisner Technique/Freehold theater/Actors First-Seattle, WA) and have been for over 2 years. I wish to further my studies (on-going basis) while open to being cast in speaking roles (Supporting/Main), if typecast-ed for characters felt best suited for me, with regards to my range of skills and abilities.

I am soft spoken with a strong set of hidden, yet explosive characteristics. Unsure of the world around me with a high contrast in self contradiction. As an acquired artistic approach, the state of emotional ambivalence is where I base my creative and imaginative flow with an open mind. I still feel the need to work on honing my skills, but then again, the pursuit for perfection is a never ending one.

Special activities:

I am very physically active, physical fitness is a natural part, and way of life for myself. I pride myself in keeping and staying physically fit and healthy. I believe that our body is our temple and taking great care of it is vital. I’ve competed in amateur boxing since I was 16 and was picked to qualify to train (For the USA Boxing Association, in Colorado Springs, CO.) for the 2000 Summer Olympics. I am also a commercial diver by trade, and highly adventurous as a sport/recreational diver. Scuba diving is one of my leisurely passions, as part of one of my many other sporting pursuits. An avid cycler, runner and I enjoy training in mixed martial arts daily (Free-Style).

I have done some print modeling in the past with monster job.com and amazon.com just to name a few, through various talent agencies in the greater Seattle area. I’ve auditioned for roles in TV commercials in the past, but was not selected yet for any major character roles, other than minor ones. I didn’t stay long enough to audition for more roles and pursue further acting due to other delaying concerns.

Unique traits
Ever the avid and persistent learner of the craft. Highly intuitive, creative and imaginative. Tenacious and confident to keep on running, yet humble and patient enough to pace myself and walk through my learning. Bi-racial, with Asian/Anglo-Irish (Filipino mother and Irish father) roots. I am also bilingual fluent in both English and Tagalog with a fraction of Visayan–a native sub-dialect of the Filipino language.
