Hello, I'm Ollie!
​​​
I'm a Brooklyn based actor and writer who draws for fun. I'm inspired by our idiosyncrasies and how they shape character. I like nature, and I'm a certified Eagle Scout. People laugh when I say that, but it's true. I graduated in the BFA program at Pace University after moving here from Little Rock, Arkansas. I like to sing songs that are lush, lyrical, and either have some drama, or some swing. You can find my vocal reel here when it's finished. I'm an equal fan of the mundane and surreal. Animation, puppetry, and kinetic art inspire me to breathe life into the characters I create. What makes us tick, makes us the same, and this is my playground.
`
I'm drawn to the flawed and the absurd in acting. In drama or comedy, I'm attracted to complex and defined characters. Characters who have big emotions and try to disguise them. Sensitive and rooted in the present. I like to find the playfulness in them. I like their insecurities. I started acting in improv comedy and still love to act a fool. I recently appeared as the lead in "Applaud As I Exit", a short film produced by Barrel of Laughs Productions, which is slated to premier late Spring 26. I also shot a surreal short for Nikon about an agoraphobic pinheaded creature that can be found here. Other appearances include those in Lena Dunham's Good Sex, Mindy Kaling's Not Suitable for Work, and Jordan Firstman's I Love LA all soon to be streaming.
​
I write across screenwriting, sketch, and prose, with humor connecting them all. I'd like to mention while I have you, I'm more than happy to provide professional copywriting to anyone who wants to pay me. Tongue in cheek:you got it toots. Romantic and luxurious: our rendezvous awaits. Who better to know an audience? I'm currently writing a queer spy ensemble-comedy set in New York and I swear to god if anyone steals my idea I'll find you. And I'll ruin your google reviews. Click here to read some recent work!

If you click the teal chicken at the bottom, it will take you to my art instagram. There you can find poster designs, album covers, and personal artwork for friends and family.
If there are no further questions, I say we break for 15, and I'll see you back here refreshed- ready to rock and roll.
