Gerry is a former Marine and MMA Fighter who transitioned into acting in his late 20's. His passion for acting led him to change his undergraduate major to Theatre and attend graduate school for Performance: Acting. After 15 Years of success in Theatre, Gerry re-focused his training on Film and TV acting. Supporting roles on Showtime, Hallmark and numerous Film projects have reinforced his love for the craft and push him to train even harder. A delicious villain currently training with firearms and competing in Jujitsu or a comic distraction specializing in pratfalls; Gerry is ready to embrace his next project and share amazing stories with the world.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
