Yes I’m an actor, but originally I came to Earth to unlock the secret of immortality. Raised in a bookish, Ukrainian-Jewish household, I decided the best way to achieve this—and make my parents happy—was to become a genetic engineer. But soon after starting college, I realized genetic engineering wasn’t for me. I took up acting instead, even though it will probably lead to a much shorter lifespan than the original immortality project.
I discovered the joy of stepping into the lives of different characters. The cocky Wall Street up-and-comer blissfully unaware of his impending downward spiral. The charming yet dangerous Russian operative. The know-it-all hacker saving the world with a keyboard and cold pizza.
Speaking of hackers, I’m also a digital marketing entrepreneur. You can ask the person who developed this webpage and they’ll tell you all about how annoying I was about the schema markup in the backend. I also tried to build my own SEO agency at one point (TheMarketingDollar.com), but then I realized I’m happiest having it run as a simple freelance business.
Freelancing gives me the freedom to have unforgettable life experiences. I spent six months backpacking through South America. I expanded my mind through Buddhism and spirituality in Thailand. I’m here to inspire people to pursue what they truly wish with their lives and to trust that they’ll figure out how to align everything else around that. The trajectory of my life is intended to serve as a blueprint for that. And so while I practice my art, my life itself is also the work of art.
