An Outdoorsy New England Boy Who Loves
                                    Games, Math, Movies, & People
 

I grew up in a small town in Massachusetts, came of age giving my heart to a summer camp in Vermont, majored in Theater at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire, pounded the pavement of the New York downtown theater scene after for a few years, and then got my MFA in Acting at Brown/Trinity Rep in Providence, Rhode Island all before moving out to LA in 2012. Yes, my friends call me a “Playboy of the New English World” 🤗

And some of my heart is still back there - I now direct the musical at that childhood all-boys summer camp for a month most summers, enthusing 60 odd boys with the world of theater. But my heart is also here - I’m a middle school math teacher by day, performer by night (I’m a member of The Road Theatre Company in NoHo), on-camera actor by trade, and love living in the orbit of Hollywood.

 

Yes, to say I’m “obsessed with movies” is an understatement. I remember the release dates of most movies since May 1995, I’ve been predicting the Oscars for over three decades (check out www.DickiePicks.com), and I’ve also been manifesting Oscar parody videos since 2014 (called The Dickie Awards), which have made a splash on YouTube.

I love performance art & human connection, and will be the first one excited about a math brain teaser, round of frisbee golf, or a game night.
