Who is this Guy?
Tyler is more than his beautiful eyes. For his entire life, Tyler has known that he would see his name in lights. From a young age, he cherished stories above all else. His parents desperately wanted him to be a sports star, but when the only way to get him to run the length of the soccer field was to yell "PRETEND YOU'RE FLYING TO NEVERLAND!" they knew they had something else on their hands. Little did they know, that something else would turn out to be the world's biggest contradiction: An introverted theatre kid!
Tyler could almost always be found playing dress up, living in his own little fantasy world. Whether it was climbing around on the playground as Peter Pan, pretending his daily chores were a day at Hogwarts, or building his own custom lego sets, Tyler could always be found creating his own worlds. Tyler could never settle for reality as it was. He would so much rather live inside the fantasy worlds of the stories he loved so much. He loved the magic and the adventure and intrigue that stories could bring.
Tyler pursued all kinds of sports to make his parents happy. He played basketball, baseball, and soccer. The only one that stuck was a 9 year stint in Martial Arts, where he earned his black belt. However, Tyler didn't feel like he had found his calling until he tried his hand at the theatre. In 7th grade, he auditioned for the school play "The Lady Pirates of Captain Bree" for the role of "Fergus the Irish first mate." Immediately, Tyler knew he had a knack for performing, and the rest is history.

Throughout high school, Tyler threw himself into the arts. Be it Marching Band, chamber choir, acting class, or the school plays/musicals, Tyler was there trying to soak it all up.
Tyler's life changed forever when he was accepted to The Hartt School of Music, Theatre, and Dance. Suddenly his pipe dream of being a performer wasn't so far-fetched, and he could plunge himself into the study of acting. Tyler would not trade his time at the Hartt School for the world. He discovered a love of improv comedy, and was able to study his craft with incredible detail. He also had the incredible opportunity to intern at renowned regional theatres like Hartford Stage and Theatreworks, experiences that proved to him that the life of an established actor is definitely the life for him.
Now Tyler lives in Brooklyn, NYC, where he's trying to establish himself as an actor. When his amazing agent, Lisa Price, isn't sending him to appointments, catch him in line outside Pearl Studios shivering and gripping an Americano, just waiting for his chance to get in that room and give a stellar performance. When he isn't auditioning, he can undoubtedly be found slinging cups o' joe and pumpkin spice lattes at his Starbucks in Brooklyn. But with any luck, he won't be your local barista for long! One day you'll look up at the marquis and say "Hey that guy made me a dope cappuccino! Now he's on BROADWAY??"
