  • About me
    Vallejo, California, United States
    This happily married, double-threat (Actor/Singer) is a Northern California native who speaks (and sings in) Spanish. Speaks a total of three languages: English, Spanish, and Gibberish (--last one, unintentionally!)

    "I love to make people laugh and firmly believe that those who take themselves too seriously are the most boring people on earth. So if you can't laugh at yourself, find someone nearby to laugh at.

    Seriously, though, showbiz is all I've ever wanted to do since I was a teenager. But just like the saying, 'life happens while you're busy making other plans.'

    So the dream was delayed, and delayed again. And almost before I knew it the better side of forty had come and gone... and I was not a lot further to my goal. On a brighter note, I didn't know I could sing until I was over 30. So you never know what you are capable of until you try!

    My biggest claim to fame thus far:
    Hand-double for Oliver Platt in the feature, "Bicentennial Man," 1999, starring Robin Williams. When you see close-ups on the hands of Oliver's character, the scientist/robot builder, Rupert Burns working on Andrew's (Robin Williams) head, the hands actually belong to "yours truly."

    So, here I am making another stab at it. Don't know where it will lead. Let's see what happens..."
