A fan of film from a very early age, Brian originally intended to be a filmmaker. While living in Florida and completing a sound engineering internship for motion picture sound, an open casting call for a major motion picture changed his direction. The film was "The Punisher" starring Thomas Jane. Waiting in line for over 2 hours in 95-degree heat and not expecting anything to happen, Brian was chosen from over 6,000 people to play a bit part as a Russian bodyguard opposite the lead, Thomas Jane. From that day on, Brian was hooked on acting and has appeared in films, commercials, and print work.
