I'm a character actor at heart.

I'm really an actor first. I'd love to do more straight plays.

I actually danced as a child with my mom. There were very few boys who would dance.

I love film and TV, the medium of them, just because it's such a smaller screen. It's much more precise. Ideally, I'd like to do maybe a film a year of some sort and use that to work more in the theatre because theatre really is my first love.

I knew from a young age that I could sing and it was impressed upon me that if I got a classically trained education in voice, it would serve as a foundation for whatever I chose to do.

The most important thing about my profession is finding the truth, finding the reality of these shows.

I grew up in Atlanta, Georgia and as far as my exposure to theatre, my mom is a ballet director, and she has her own ballet company down there. I started, I think, when I was four when I went onstage for the first time as Fritz in The Nutcracker. That's how it started with me.

I wouldn't want to raise a family in New York. And it's getting to the point where you can have an established career and live in Atlanta.

My Mom is a ballet director, so I had this idea in me that classical training is the best foundation for anything you do, so I wanted to get a classical background and voice.
