| Although I began and will always be tied to the stage, film has been a great passion of mine. I have been involved with the creation of films, studied basic filmmaking and screenwriting, and have worked on crews at different levels. In many ways, film is very similar to theatre; both team-oriented and working towards one creative result. In film, character creation is also very important; every little choice is magnified. I have learned to work with the camera and the complex technical aspects of films. On the stage you move through the story and the emotions from scene to scene but in film, the stage is moving, time stops, it is chopped up as you move from shot to shot. It is a wonderful art form! | ||

My newest project is a short film shot in Texas. "Roadkill"
was directed by David Broyles- pictures coming soon! Meanwhile, Check out my new REEL! |
 "Weather Girl". I had a blast shooting some very fun scenes with Tricia O'Kelley and Jane Lynch. We got to battle a bit in Spanish- always fun! This is one funny film. |
 Day Labor is a movie I am very proud of. It is the story of Santiago, a day laborer facing tough times and choices that will impact his soul. Director Lowell Frank shared my passion for telling a true story and I look forward to the film's birth... |
 Ilegales has been one of my most rewarding and challenging projects. Playing Arturo Chacon alongside a great cast and crew was a wonderful experience. My Ilegales Page / IMDB Page |
 Beverly Hills Chihuahua was a success! I am very proud of my work on this film. Look for me as the first Park Ranger... it is a fun film for the whole family. |
 Just happy to have been a small part of this fun and well received comedy. Great cast and director. |

This very well
crafted satire is a "fish-out-of-water" film directed by Jason
Bushman. I portrayed Eugenio, a bus boy who helps to
clarify to the lead character that he might be on a dead-end
road. |
I play Renato in what is described as "a topsy-turvy take on the classic werewolf legend" | Broken circle recently played in the Oscar Qualifying La Film Festival. The performances were well received- I have always been very supportive of this project by my now friend director Aaron Sawyer. |
 "Chris" was one of my first roles. He's a good hearted guy caught in a bank robery scheme that's way over his head. Things don't go as planned. |
 Directed by Luis Fernandez Reneo. A story about a group of children trying to reach their father in America. Manuel is tormented by his choices. |
 El chacon was a character I played understanding that some people smuglers at the border don't always put people first. El Pollero was directed by Kevin Abrams at AFI. |

| Directed by Marcial Rios Salcido, this Spanish language film looks at the idea of self-discovery- even when we wear make-up to cover up our fears. | This indie film was directed by Joe Perry. I played a star-map seller who is very territorial and has friends who play basketball... always a fun thing! | My first film is still one of my most personal projects. It was ahead of the loss I had years later... but I remember living the pain of this film as we shot... it is a poetic film directed by Jonathan Mason. |
