I am a voice actor, vocalist, actor and performing artist. I have worked as a vocalist and voice actor for the following video games: -Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion: Knights of the Nine: Revelation -Metal Hellsinger (Funcom, The Outsiders) -Doom Eternal (id Software/Bethesda Softworks) -Dead by Daylight (Behaviour Interactive) I studied voice over at Mike Lemon Casting in Philadelphia & acting at the Bloomington Academy of Art and Theatre. I am also known as the frontman and founding member of Black Crown Initiate, a progressive extreme metal band, formed in 2011, and have toured and performed with the band in North America and Europe many times since we were signed to eOne Records in 2012. We are now signed to Century Media Records, a subsidiary of Sony Music, and our critically acclaimed 2020 release, Violent Portraits of Doomed Escape, can be found on Spotify, Apple Music and the like. Since then, I have joined the metal opera project DiAmorte: The Red Opera (as featured in Forbes) as the character Dorian, which raised over $160,000 for its correlating Dungeons and Dragons campaign on Kickstarter, as well as tech-metal Boston-based band Replacire.
