WHY
although not on a first name basis
Rick approaches every role with a musician’s discipline
and a storyteller’s instinct.
He listens closely, plays with restraint,
and aims always for performances that feel lived-in
and quietly truthful.
Artistry
Experience
Rick brings a lifetime of lived perspective to his work—
a life full of stories, winding roads, and real experience.
He didn’t come to acting first; he came to it after life had already
given him something true to draw from.
The craft he developed on mic, on camera, and on stage refined the work,
but the depth comes from the life behind it.
Trust
Rick believes trust is built quietly—through calm, clarity,
and the way you carry yourself in the work.
He aims to bring a steady, grounded presence to sets and sessions -
the kind that supports the room and the people in it,
and strengthens the work.
He listens, adjusts, collaborates clearly,
and works to be someone the room can rely on.
