I’ve been involved in dog rescue for a decade now. WOW, where has the time gone, wait, I know, it’s gone to the dogs. I’ve been a volunteer for Starpaw Rescue for 8 years. In the old days, my Sunday mornings would consist of Sunday brunches, with Mimosa’s and Eggs Benedict, inhaling that wonderful ocean breeze. They now consist of water bowls, dog treats and lots of wagging tails, YEP is called dog adoptions. But I still get that ocean breeze, and, I wouldn’t trade it for the world. And, I’m now a lot skinner. I’ve met some great people along the way, and any acting jobs I was lucky enough to book all came from dog rescue connections. How’s that for good Karma.

Southern California Native, born and raised in the (805), Actor, Entrepreneur & Animal Advocate. Simply put, I love Animals. Having worked with Victoria and Star Paws Rescue for the past several years has been a treasure in my life, and given me the opportunity to help those furry loyal friends without a voice find peace and purpose. I’ve made life long friends working with Star Paws, both two legged and four. Some I will never see again, but will know that we helped find a place they deserve, a loving respectful place, they can call home. I just worry that Victoria may want to cast me as dog in one of her movies one day. I’ve been told by many a Director to “Sit”, “Stay”, “Roll Over & play Dead”, so I think I’m adequately prepared for the task. But I am still uncertain with the whole Fire Hydrant thing. I work for Treats too.

Born in Lexington, Kentucky. Having been a photographer in the U.S. Army, an actor on stage, a drummer in bands, a painter, writer and more, I’ve seen and experienced my share of the world. No matter where I’ve been in the world, I’ve always found that dogs are the same loving, devoted, wondrous animals that us humans can learn from. Having been a “black sheep” of my family growing up, I had a kinship with other “black sheep” dogs in my neighborhood. Even though they didn’t know me at first, they acted like I was their best friend. Quite comforting for a boy like me and their affectionate, trusting, loving personalities were ones I adopted into who I became. It’s a wonderful time meeting up every Sunday with Star Paws Rescue in Pacific Palisades. A big, affectionate, trusting, loving family of humans and dogs all with the same goal…to find an affectionate, trusting, loving home, not for us humans, but for the wonderful puppies and dogs.
