About Jesse

Let's transform your acting potential.

Over 14 years, I've built my acting career from rural Louisiana, establishing myself in the Southeast and working with some of the biggest names in the film industry. I did it with no connections, no film schools, no trust fund - just a college basketball player's work ethic and a deep desire to connect and make quality films.

I'm Jesse, a working actor, producer, and teacher with a passion for supporting working artists. Some of my favorite film and television projects I've worked on include Hulu's "Candy" with Jessica Biel, "Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire", and Apple TV's "Greyhound" with Tom Hanks, and "Cape Fear" (2026) with Javier Bardem, and Amazon's "Bosch: Legacy" . I also have experience producing series, shorts, and feature films, taking projects from initial ideas all the way through festivals and distribution.

My approach has evolved through years of learning from industry greats, training alongside actors better than me, and discovering that sustainable success requires taking care of your mind, body, and spirit daily. I focus on building a foundation that can handle the demands of a thriving acting career.

I want to see you evolve as a human and an artist in a healthy way because I know how challenging this work can be. I got my BFA in Theater Arts and studied Stanislavski. My current approach is rooted in Meisner combined with Lucid Body techniques. We're looking for an authentic place where your mind, body, and spirit are all telling the same story.

Here's what you can expect with me: First, we'll meet to get to know each other. I want to understand your goals, your experience, and what you're hoping to achieve. From there, if we want to work together, I'll create a safe container to explore your process. I will set goals with you, create a plan, challenge you, and guide you. Every session will adapt to where you are and where you want to go.

I teach in three areas:

+ Acting Development: Self-tape help, character study (motivations, relationships, beats, stakes), Lucid Body physical exercises to balance your instrument, or meditations for mental focus and inspiration.
+ Industry Navigation: practical skills like developing your website, optimizing casting profiles, creating compelling reels, and managing industry relationships.
+ Creative Producing: help you create your own opportunities through short films, web series, and projects that showcase your unique voice.

I'm here to help you build the skills and mindset you need to thrive and grow in this challenging industry.

  • When did you start practicing? How did this passion find you?

    I first acted in two plays during my 2nd grade elementary school theater program. After that, I didn't return to acting until my sophomore year of college when I injured my back playing collegiate basketball. While injured, I joined an acting class and the musical theater department. From there I was hooked.
  • Which artists or works affect you the most?

    Some actors and directors have impacted me the most. Some of them include Cillian Murphy, Olivia Coleman, John Leguizamo, Daniel Day Lewis, Edgar Wright, Robert Rodgriguez, Javier Bardem, Tom Hanks, Jessica Biel, Guillermo Del Toro, Brad Pitt, and many others.
  • What are the qualities and skills required to succeed in this area?

    Passion first and foremost. After that one needs curiosity, resilience, adaptability, consistency, respect, self love, and the willingness to live in the uncomfortable and the unknown.
  • What is the most valuable advice you can give to help someone stay focused on creative projects?

    Know why you are making the piece of art. It doesn't have to be logical or logical. But let that feeling or reason light your spirit up and guide you. It's the only thing you will have in the darkness of creation.
  • How would you describe your passion; how does it make you feel?

    My passion is an adventurous sail boat in the middle of a thunderstorm. The winds and rain are chaotic. I don't always know what direction I am heading. I could be sunk at any moment. Yet, I am surfing the waves with a full sail. And when I look to the horizon, I see the sunlight through the storm. This passion makes me feel truly alive, like I am meant to perform, born from this earth to connect with others through my storytelling.
  • What creative achievements are you particularly proud of?

    I am proud of creating films and tv shows with some of my childhood heroes like Tom Hanks, Jessica Biel, and Javier Bardem. I also produced and led a feature film called "Cedar Bluff" in 2025 and am excited to share that with the world soon.
  • Have you ever been surprised by a student; by their ability or quick progression?

    I am constantly inspired and surprised by the students I get to work with. Some just their raw talent. Others in their ability to show up and grow week after week.
  • Being a Superprof is an art! What is your secret?

    Honestly, the answer to that is pretty similar to the qualities of success. I show up the best I can as myself, curious and passionate about who I am getting to know and the possibility of journeying this acting world together. I try to adapt to each and every student level, as well as respect them wherever they are within the work.
