MEET BRIAN
At the age of 7, my grandparents bought me a VHS camcorder and said “Go make movies”.
From that moment onward I was off and running, making skits in my bedroom, creating characters, and learning all aspects of filmmaking. By my teens, I had created 2 public access shows, performed in multiple stage productions at the local Syracuse theater, and even debuted my first full-length feature film. But I knew my talents were limited in my hometown, so I decided I was ready to move to California and pursue Hollywood.
I graduated from the Los Angeles Film School in 2008 where I studied, Directing, Acting, Cinematography, and Editing. In the years following, I found myself enjoying various roles in a few feature films, including the Academy Award-winning film “The Artist”, where I was proud to share the screen next to John Goodman. My later role would be a cult horror film Starring Gary Busey & Robert Picardo. I enjoyed a few spots on Glee as well as Community when I decided to take a break from Acting and focus my attention on Editing.
In the last 12 years, I’ve made a successful career as a Motion Picture and Television Editor, winning multiple awards including an Emmy for my work in Film & Television. I have seen the success of my film's debut at the Kodak theatre, landing me some incredible opportunities, and even shape our nation with my latest work involving political campaigns.However, my true love for acting has been calling me back to the screen. Recently I completed a course at Margie Haber’s acting studio, where the spark of Acting and creating characters was ignited in me once again. And while I continue to push myself with my Editing career, I have now begun to submit myself for roles in major TV shows and films, to be in front of the camera once again!
