What are you best known for?
I'm probably best known for an appearance on the hit CW show SUPERNATURAL as the character Jace, or for my role of Kaly in the critically acclaimed, award-winning Canadian film NEVER STEADY, NEVER STILL.
What is the first thing you directed?
The first project I wrote, directed and starred in was a short film called UNINTENTIONAL MOTHER. It was the only Canadian film to receive the Kevin Spacey Foundation's Artist of Choice Award to be produced.
What are you working on that no one knows about yet?
I have a short film in post-production that I wrote and directed called BETTER AT TEXTING. The short is a proof of concept for a feature film by the same name, and it will be getting shopped around in the new year.
