John has taught at Imagination Stage, the Rockville Jewish Community Center, and the Smithsonian Associates Summer Program. His on-camera work includes the indie crime drama Volkov: Origin, the upcoming Netflix movie Rustin, the National Geographic Channel's Killing Kennedy, and Lovely Molly, a supernatural thriller from the creators of The Blair Witch Project. Onstage John’s recent work includes acting and directing for the Law Theatre Project and the ongoing role of the Detective in Murder Mystery USA's DC area touring company. John is currently a writer for the news-based sketch comedy show “This Week This Week” playing at The Atwater Village Theatre in Los Angeles.

The thing I enjoy most about teaching at Theatre Lab is being in a supportive community of talent at all levels. The respect and dedication to the actor’s craft demonstrated by all members of the Theatre Lab community, teachers, staff and students, makes it an inspiring place in which to be present. I have no doubt I have seen among my students the artists who are going to light the way for the next generation of DC talent and audiences.
