ShawnJ, that's all one word folks! No space, period or middle initial. Sir Diva, that's me!

Actor, dancer, director and an all around love for storytelling Sir Diva was born and raised in St Louis. Theatre called to him in high school and he's been smitten since. After a time in the US Air Force, he made his way to Sacramento where he got his dance training and honed his acting skills. A spontaneous move to Seattle, WA garnered greater experience and a community that supported him for 16 years and gaining a love for directing. The Bay Area called in 2011 marking another leap of faith for which he's loved every moment. Now focusing on directing he loves telling stories from that side of the table and guiding actors to be free, true and authentic. To simply tell the story. "I believe we are all born with a purpose, when we embrace it, we find we can soar!"
