If someone had told me at the age of sixteen that I would grow up to be an actor, poet, musician, playwright and activist. I would have looked at them like they were crazy, while secretly praying that particular prophecy would come true. My life journey has allowed me to travel the world and to live a life full of possibility. Currently home exists somewhere between Los Angeles, California; Atlanta, Georgia and Johannesburg, South Africa. Since originally relocating to Johannesburg in 2003, I've been a pretty familiar face on South African television including memorable roles on South Africa’s favorite prime time soapie, Generations and Ubizo: The Calling. I’ve also been a part of some wonderful projects in the USA like Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, Star Trek:Picard, Bosch, The Book of Negroes, American History X, and Hotel Rwanda. I've done other stuff, but we've got time to explore all of that!
While acting is my first love, I've been fortunate enough to express my creativity through other forms. It often comes as a surprise when people find out that I do all that I do!
• I’m the creator of We Are Here, a social activism campaign that in South Africa utilizes discoursive play to engage men and boys in themes of gender violence, identity, relationships and HIV/AIDS. I’m the co-creator of The “WHY” Factor, which is a series of workshops that uses applied theatre techniques to help men and boys develop life and decision making skills.
• I’m the author of four plays: Celebration, Beautiful Struggle, We Are Here and Crossing Rivers.
• I’m also a studio recording artist! I've released two solo projects Human Jewels and We Dance We Pray.
I also took the time to go back to school where I earned an MA in Applied Theatre from the City University of New York. It was such a difficult decision to finally go back, but it was worth the two year break I took from my career!
