Hi!
I am a Puerto Rican SAG/AFTRA actor currently living in Harlem, NYC. I have experience in Film, TV & Theatre. I've worked on shows; Law & Order SVU, POWER, Chicago Fire, FBI, & Blue bloods.
I love being able to work with other actors on auditions. It's a great way to stay connected and creative. I'm happy to help with self-tapes, be a reader or just shoot something for fun.
If you have any questions about agents, casting directors, scripts... I'm happy to share what I know.
I can give feedback or direction if it is something you'd like.
I've been told I'm pretty good at breaking down scenes. Love analysing text.

I am a Puerto Rican born actor from Ponce, Puerto Rico, currently living in Harlem, NYC.
It was in a High School drama class that I first came across "Mambo Mouth" by John Leguizamo which sparked my interest for acting.
After High School,
I attended SUNY College at Purchase and got my first acting opportunity with an off broadway Educational Brooklyn theatre company.
Since then, I've worked on shows; Law & Order, POWER, The White House Plumbers, Chicago Fire, FBI, & Blue bloods.
I credit my High School experience as a catalyst to my acting career. Because of this, I continues to collaborate with The Manhattan Theatre Club and Family Life Theatre offering acting workshops to schools in NYC.
I own HARLEM SELFTAPE NYC giving actors a fun, easy safe space to record self tape auditions,
