What is your most memorable childhood experience? | Playing outside riding my bike, playing football, rollerblading, swimming in our back yard pool with my brothers. It was never ending play when we were young. |
What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | My father. He is the smartest and hardest working man I know. He was honest and loyal. He always was willing to help. |
What character traits do you admire in an individual? | Loyalty and passion for others and the things that they do. |
What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | I was performing a song in a play I was in that was a solo. Right before the song I had a monologue. I bumped my nose by accident and it began to bleed. The song started playing and I tried to wipe it away. The blood kept coming. I continued to sing hoping the blood would stop. Further into the song the blood started coming out faster. I caught a large amount of blood coming out of my nose and showed it to the audience. My hand was dripping while I was singing. I wiped it on the back of my leg. In the middle of song my character professes his love for another character. Instead of the scripted speech I said “I love you so much I’m getting a nose bleed!” The audience erupted in laughter. I squeezed my nose to temporarily stop the bleeding. I belted out the rest of the song, singing it the best I ever had. The theatre was not the biggest I had performed in but the applause was deafening. The next scene needed to be delayed because of the applause. After the fact we all had some good laughs about it. |
If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | Alaska. Although I dress up as a city boy, I would love to spend time in the woods. Living off the land in a dwelling built by my hands. I would enjoy the seclusion of the woods. But still be close enough to town to enjoy the company of other people. |
When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | I would love to pass on my passions. I love theatre, music, and singing. However, I also love to play football and enjoy weightlifting. I would want to share my passion for sports and the arts. |
