ABOUT

Hey there! Thank you for visiting my website.

I am a Chicago-based actor, born and raised in this beautiful and bustling city. As the son of two Argentines, I am a first-generation American. Throughout my childhood, I was always found in front of a TV or computer, eyes glued to the screen with fascination at all the movies that were at my fingertips. At nine years old, my mom was surprised at my memorization skills when she saw that I could recite the entire script of The Sound of Music with ease.

It was at that moment of discovery that my mom signed me up for acting classes.

Throughout middle school, I attended summer camp for theatre and participated in after-school theatre programs in the Chicago area. I attended a visual and performing arts high school, where I continued to learn more about the craft of acting.

It wasn’t until I attended Cornish College of the Arts for undergrad that I truly fell in love with the process. As my time at Cornish progressed, I began writing small pieces of theatre and found the process exhilarating. At the same time, I took an interest in directing for the stage. I graduated magna cum laude from Cornish with a degree in Original Works.

Immediately after graduating, I put myself to work in Seattle. I had the immense fortune of assistant directing several plays and performing in several more. Just before heading back to Chicago, I snagged an opportunity to become an Equity Membership Candidate.

I have had the privilege of working on theatrical productions ranging from classical and contemporary works to original pieces and stage readings, and even voiceover work and acting in front of the camera. When not performing, I can be found taking stage combat classes, altering clothes, or chasing my cat, Cashy, around the house.

Or perhaps you’ll see me recite The Sound of Music once more…

Thanks again for being here.
