About James

Having trained in the workings of community theater, I garnered the need to attack film. Upon moving to Vancouver, I graduated the one year 'Acting for Film & Television' program at Vancouver Film School (VFS).

While working through term three of VFS, I landed my first lead role in the independent film, 'Nectar', which is currently on festival circuit.

After completion, I quickly gained union status with ACTRA/UBCP, and won multiple monologue competitions in school and out, where I then landed a role on CW's 'iZombie".

I have since traveled back to Australia and fulfilled the desire to write and direct shorts, where I have worked in collaboration with graduate film studies students.

Most recently I completed post-production my short film, 'God of Insects', which won a screenplay award at Festigious Film Festival in LA, before hitting pre-production.

I strive to create.
