I'm a filmmaker, writer, actor based in Los Angeles. I moved here in the mid-2000s for my acting career, but a few years into it began producing and writing, and eventually directing. I've produced several festival-circuit short films over the years and written several feature film screenplays.
I'm also into theater. I've written two full length stage plays and two short form stage plays. All of which could probably be converted to film scripts. One of them was a quarterfinalist in the Screencraft stage play contest in 2019.
I love action/adventure, period pieces, sci-fi, and drama genres.
As an actor, I've acted in over 100 indie projects (films, shorts, new media), including some I've written for myself. I'm great with accents and character work. As a person of ethnic diversity, I'm an active advocate for diversity in entertainment.

Hi Billy!
Right now I'm deep into some major rewrites for my feature scripts. But I have a few pitch meetings coming up for episodics (one unscripted, one scripted), so hopefully one or both of those bite! Acting-wise - the usual, auditioning a lot. Feature I'm in will be premiering at a festival later this year.
What about you? 2022 plans?

Nice to meet you Nevin Millan and congratulations acting in so many films! That's awesome.
I'm also a sci fi fan and actually wrote a screenplay for a sci fi thriller, but just last year we finished shooting a proof of concept short film for a TV series based in the 30s.
How did you find your move to LA?
I've been thinking and secretly hoping to do a move if we can get a couple of projects going over there.
@Sarah Teres - Thank you! Love the copy on your website about Gen X. Very well said!

@vital Butinar - Great to meet you. I'd love to see the proof of concept, sounds super interesting! Move to LA was a leap of faith for sure. A bit of a culture shock, but if you go into it with a positive energy, you will find yourself having a great time. I saw you're from Slovenia. My mother was from Croatia!

Nevin Millan oh waw, that's awesome. I actually have a lot of friends in Croatia. I vacation there almost every summer.
I'll send you a PM with the link to it. :)
My partner and I are definitely thinking about it but at the same time I'm not sure we can do it blindly but need to find just a couple of projects to work on before I'd commit.
