Hi, I'm James. Welcome!
I’m a New York City–based Latine/Asian American actor, writer, and producer interested in stories about identity, family, and the complexities of human relationships.
I trained at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts NYC conservatory program and with world reknowned teacher and theater director Austin Pendleton at HB Studio.
When I’m not acting or writing, I’m probably listening to ’90s hip-hop, watching the Dallas Cowboys, or hanging out with my Pomeranian-Shih Tzu, Archie.
To learn more about my writing and producing work, visit the Playwright / Producer page.
