About Devon

Simply a fun loving guy born and raised on the South Side of Chicago and who never thought that I would eventually leave one day. I spent most of my adult life in the Military serving in The Navy, Army, and retiring from the Air Force. I always wanted to work in entertainment, but was just unsure how. I was always told that I should do voice-over, but knew not how to even begin. I was told that I should do stand up comedy, but I think that I am one of those guys that is only funny when in a group setting and not so much on stage.

I decided to go back to school in my mid 30's. I did my undergraduate degree in Film & Video at Columbia College Chicago and my graduate degree at DePaul University in Cinema Production. I have worked a lot of Film Festivals such as Sundance, SXSW, Tribeca, and Mill Valley. I have also worked on several film projects ranging from short to feature to documentary. I am now on the journey to find my unique path in this industry and although I have scholastic training I still feel that there is a great deal more that I would love to learn.

Unique traits: I am a twin, I served in 3 branches of the Military.
