I have known Zac since he was a little boy backstage at The Firehouse Theatre where he was on running crew and he would memorize everyone's lines. I thought then he would be an actor when he grew up.

I am really grateful that they gave me this opportunity and I look forward to learning all kinds of things.... But My Heart is in acting!! There is nothing like being on a stage with 200-300 people looking at you..I love being on stage and knowing that people can forget about what's going on at home and for a little while the only thing they are thinking about is the show. I enjoy making them smile, cry or laugh. That just makes me fell so good inside!!
