Nominee

Susan bills me as award-winning & classically trained, but I'm just a guy addicted to performing since he was a kid. I'm film focused now, but I spent nearly 30 years on CT stages in the Before Times, eventually launching Vagabond TC w/ my wife, Tanya, in 2016. I've driven a desk as a metal trader for the last 25 yrs. Now that we are empty nesters I’m recalculating family recipes for two, renovating our house her great grandmother had built in 1921, & filling the craters our 6 y/o Malamute digs in the backyard
