OVERVIEW______________________

DATE OF BIRTH February 19th, 1986 in New York City, New York.

BIOGRAPHY Originally raised in NYC, beneath a single parent household Cash was meant to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a successful business man. Throughout Cash’s early years he hadn’t questioned himself on whether or not he actually wanted to take over the family law firm. Though Cash had always had an interest in acting since he was young, he never had the chance to pursue it, for fear of disappointing his father. It wasn’t until Cash was nineteen that he was able to get the guts to pursue his acting career, without his father’s blessings. Cash moved to L.A., blindly enrolling into the School of Theater of USC and took a few acting classes in a separate school which specialized in helping young aspiring actors and actresses take that first step into the acting industry. It was throughout the four years he spent at the prestigious school that his acting career really took off. He’s landed roles in TV shows as well as movies, most known for playing the “bad guy”. But he’s now taking his acting to another level, taking a lead role as a vampire slayer in the upcoming film “Slayer By Night”.
