"Dad Day" the 6 episode comedy series I worked on for BRICTV was released toady online and the first episode will screen on television tonight. DAD DAY (2016) You can watch here: DAY DAY
How long does it take to become a real New Yorker? Some say 10 years, but for Craig and James, the answer is never. They were beat in while others bought in. Dad Day follows Craig and James as they deal with the modern dilemmas of fatherhood and friendship in their continually gentrifying city. The guys are set on making sure James’ son Henry is raised like an authentic New Yorker and they spend each episode exploring and trying to instill in Henry the virtues of being raised like a real New York kid. But what happens when the place your from, ain’t the place your from no more?

  • I was cast as the lead in a commercial for ESPN AUDIO with SVP & Russillo. The shoot went great and the guys were awesome. I had an amazing time on set just hanging with Scott & Ryen shooting da Breeze’. It was a large shoot up in bristol connecticut. The guys rip my character to pieces for thinking he can get the hot chick at the bar. Tons of fun. Everyone was great from the agency, ESPN, the crew, and the awesome director Chris

    My sketch Group “The Grape Dutches Of York” released new sketches every Sunday this summer. I am one of the new members for this season and I got to play allot of amazing characters. You can see them on Funny or Die & on The Dutches website here http://www.grapedutches.com/?portfolio-category=shorts

  • I wrote and directed a spoof trailer called Cicada Hater. It is a take on SYFY B-movies and the impending cicada invasion in NYC. The blog ToplessRobot picked it up and did a nice little article on it. “Cicada Hater is not an actual Syfy original movie...it's better. Shorter, for one thing. All it's missing is alcoholic Hollywood has-beens”

  • I just finished up a Spec Pilot for Comedy Central with The Wandering Army. Great shoot (even though it was freezing!). I play a newbie FBI agent that is very gung ho and giddy. Why am I giddy, because I am working with Mr. C the greatest hostage negotiator ever. 
  • My Audition for Robert Rodriguez's film 2 Scoops is on the front page of Gizmodo & IO9. http://gizmodo.com/5992662/regular-people-like-these-two-guys-are-vying-for-a-role-in-robert-rodriguezs-latest-film
