My name is Ryan. I'm a professional actor from the Philadelphia area, and I am excited to share what I know with you and help you be the best actor you can be. I've worked as a professional actor for about four years. I've worked in film and theatre, Shakespeare plays and world premiers, musicals and devised pieces, horror pictures and feel-good films, and, thanks to the pandemic, even virtual shows. I've worked alongside both experienced Broadway actors and talented up-and-comers, and I so I've had the opportunity to study how great actors work, and I hope to relay some of that to you. I have a Bachelor's degree in both Theatre and Philosophy from Hamilton College, and I will begin to work towards my MFA in acting at DePaul University this fall. I've taken intensives in Shakespeare, audition prep, and devised performance at places like, SITI Company (NYC), Lantern Theatre (Philadelphia), The Phoenix Theatre (PA), and Pig Iron Theatre Company (Philadelphia). I've seen how some of the country's best acting teachers relate to their students, and I have learned how to guide actors through exercises and scene study so that they can reap the maximum benefit. Outside of acting, I am a college swim coach (so get ready for a pep talk if you're feeling down about your acting abilities), and an avid kayaker and nordic skier. I love movies, sports on TV, Italian food, and spending time with friends and family (often via Zoom these days). I can't wait to meet you and help you take your acting to the next level.
