About me

A driven Toronto based actor, filmmaker, and physical theatre artist, I immigrated to
Canada in the early 2000s with the single goal to express truth through the medium of acting and film.
Working with countless companies outside of my theatre training, like Panoply Classical Collective, MixtapeProjects, Hydrama Greece just to name a few, I have discovered my strengths in comic and dramatic skills that are constantly leavened by a gentle sincerity. These, in conjunction with my strong physical approach to the work, have made me an asset to any company’s mission.
I hope to make a positive impact on the world through the power of storytelling, and I offer my
unlimited energy, positivity with great enthusiasm.
