His infectious energy, wholehearted nature, and absolute passion for what he does – not to mention the beauty of his voice – has catapulted him onto the biggest stages and secured his place within the world of opera. A lover of the stage, of performance, of music, and of people, there is powerful allure in his craft, but an even greater charm in his being.
