I’m Gerard, an actor from the lively streets of Astoria, Queens, New York.


For me, the question isn’t “When did you realize you wanted to be an actor?” but rather, “Why do you act?” Acting challenges me both physically and emotionally. It allows me to create moments that can lift someone’s spirits and transport them away from their everyday worries. Those moments of connection and freedom are why I do what I do.

​

My acting journey started in college, where I dove into an acting program and sought out various workshops across NYC. Those experiences not only honed my skills but also sparked a deep passion for this craft, motivating me to pursue this dream with all my heart.

 
In 2013, I was honored to receive the “Best Action Actor” award at the Urban Action Showcase at HBO headquarters. Being recognized by legends like Michael Jai White and Kelly Hu was surreal and motivated me to keep chasing my dreams. Since then, I’ve been fortunate to collaborate with incredible talent on various TV series and films
 
Whenever I'm not acting, I like to spend my free time with my family and friends. I keep an active life style dividing my time between weight training, studying martial arts, playing sports and spending one on one time with my little man Niko (my Yorkie-Poo!).
