ACTOR/DIRECTOR
Quick History...
Hi! I've had a passion for the performing arts for as long as I can remember. Ever since I was young I knew I wanted to make a living as an actor. I decided to pursue my dream of performing professionally by first obtaining a Bachelor's Degree in Theatre Arts from Texas Tech University, where I became well-versed in both live and film performance and production.
I have performed in several well-received shows, some of my favorites being John Proctor in The Crucible and Jaston Williams' characters in Greater Tuna and Tuna Does Vegas. Through proficiency in several dialects and extensive character work, I am able to portray an eclectic group of roles and characters.
I have directed a variety of different plays, such as The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, LOVE/SICK, and Rocketman. I have also been blessed with the opportunity and challenge of designing lights, properties, sets, costumes, make-up, and sound for multiple shows.
I'm looking forward to contributing everything I can toward creating inspiring and impactful projects for years to come!
Constantly honing my acting ability is extremely important to me. In the Spring of 2023, I began studying at the Carol Hickey Acting Studio in Austin, Texas. There I studied Film Fight and Choreography, Improvisation, Voice, Movement, Acting for Film, and Scene Work. I'm currently enrolled in their Scene Study and Acting for Film classes.
Hope all is well,
Tyler
