In addition to their formal training at UIC, Colin has honed their craft through: private lessons, classes at the Actors Studio Chicago and as a graduate of the Conservatory Program at the Second City Training Center. When not on stage, on set, or in the classroom, Colin finds joy in getting outside (preferably anywhere near Lake Michigan), going to see the latest movies, or exploring a new coffee house in the city.
