Hey, look! I'm a 2025 BroadwayWorld Award nominee! I know it's a popularity contest - but it's still SUPER nice to be nominated. (Also, I should really change my profile pic - it's gonna take 4 years for my hair to be that length again!)🤣 tinyurl.com/BWW-Awards #actor #singer #cancersurvivor

Got a very nice surprise today, when I was alerted to a very complimentary shout-out on Charisma Carpenter's Buffy podcast! #buffythevampireslayer #velvetchain #90snostalgia

Had my final chemo infusion yesterday! I still need to do radiation, but it's a big milestone, nonetheless. I haven't posted all the songs in my "Singing through Chemo" series here (they're on FB and TikTok), but here's a clip of this final one. #irvingberlin

Seen while walking my dog this morning. The way the old Weehawken Water Tower was framed through one of the arches of the porch... It all looked like a painting, so I took a pic. #amateurphotography #unedited #nofilter #beautyallaround

Tonight's after-sunset glow. Zero filter. Just the view from my window. ✌️

I'm singing my way through chemo treatments, had my 3rd on Mon, sang this on Tues. (I have a series on TikTok) My hair isn't entirely gone because I'm doing this cold cap thing, but I only have a tiny bit left at the very front and the very back. Hence the short cut and scarf! #singer #chemo #strong

Something to make you smile... My senior dog can only hear me if I call his name both loudly and at a high pitch. 😂 (Sound on)

Hard to believe there's just one week left of THE BIKINIS at Winter Park Playhouse! We've gotten rave reviews, and it's honestly been a great experience - despite some interesting challenges along the way (truncated rehearsal period, health stuff, significant car accident, etc...) Gooooo, Bikinis!👙🎵

Can't believe the show is open! 🥵 My word, this was absolutely the least prepared I've EVER felt for an opening night in my entire career! 😬 But we did it! 👍 As we say in the show: "The Bikinis together forever!" 😜

Who knew my love of both horror movies and caroling would one day intersect? 😂 (That's me in the front with the glasses.) #carolers #horror #horrormovie #smile2 #singer

Found a little snippet of last night's performance at the tree lighting at Tavern on the Green in NYC. This is my 20th season as a professional caroler! Wacky. #december #music #holidays #christmas

Felt like sharing a photo I took recently in NYC that I like. I'm just an amateur photographer, but I love it. ✌️#photography
