I grew up near  New Orleans.  I attended college at the University of Texas at Austin.  Presently, I live in Portland Oregon.  A little more than a year ago, I started taking acting workshops and private lessons. Beginning in January, I will be studying film production as well. 

I recently returned from Marrakech, Morocco where I finished filming the Afghanistan portion of a feature film, Gloria @ Jesus, produced and directed by Belgium director Xavier Nellens.  In Morocco, I rode a camel, took a 4 hour ride with twists & turns in a bus up the "high Atlas" mountain (where in the middle of nowhere is a bustling half-mile stretch of road that lights up like Las Vegas at night with busy shops and restaurants), met some locals while on location, wonderful people.  Morocco is famous for its productions facilities etc. Many great directors and movies have been filmed in Morocco, like Ridley Scott who was there shooting with Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe at the same time as us.  I had the pleasure of working with a very talented cast and crew from 6 different countries. In the mountains, it seemed you could see every star in the sky at night... an amazing view. We were able to get some great footage from the mountains, desert and the riad (house) of a former King of Morocco. Built in the 1700s, this opulent riad is truly a museum. For the same project, we have been filming in Belgium, France, UK, Brazil, Israel, China and several other countries, and will wrap and complete editing in summer 2008, at which time this film will be submitted to all film festivals world wide.
