Starting in 2007 he began creating experimental multi-media theater with long-time friend and playwright Tommy Smith. They have generated two pieces, Disinformation and Transition. The latter premieres at the 2009 Under The Radar Fest at the Public Theater, New York. He lives in Williamsburg, Brooklyn presently.
