In 1992, GOD changed my act !!! During my professional career as a stand-up comedian I thought I had it all.
A life filled with drugs, alcohol, exceedingly fast living, and a large payday at the end of the week was my idea of arriving at the apex of success. One morning while visiting a small church (March 15,1992 at the invitation of a friend) I met Christ and found out how wrong I was. I soon gave up the club scene and began pursuing God as passionately as I had once pursued my career. Over the next several months (after putting down the microphone and never thinking I would pick it up again) I began speaking at prisons, high schools, and varied ministries using stand-up as an extension of my message. Since then I have worked with every population of young people, including work as a motivational speaker with the Dept. Of Youth Services for the city of Boston. The work I do in and outside of the church with young people has been some of the most rewarding, challenging, and hilarious of experiences I could have imagined. My career this time has found me and not me it.
Along with acting in film and television commercial work, I am also a writer. I have written a pilot for a sitcom, a screenplay, and a one-man show called, "The Manic Hispanic ". I continue stand-up work for corporate and charity events, youth based programs, and college campuses. It continues to be an amazing journey as I share my life, humor, and faith with some of the most incredible people that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I am under new management and he has one unbelievable sense of humor.
