Featured Interview: CanvasRebel on Acting and Off Script

Originally published by CanvasRebel on March 9, 2026.

I recently sat down with CanvasRebel to talk about my journey as an actor and the experiences that ultimately led me to create Off Script: The Actor’s Operating System.

In the interview we discuss the psychological side of the profession — the long stretches between work, the identity shifts actors face, and the resilience required to sustain a creative life in the industry.

The conversation also explores how those experiences evolved into the philosophy behind the Off Script project.
