John began studying with the successful theater and film coach Ruth Kulerman. After many lessons and plenty of encouragement from Ruth, he started testing the waters. Early in 2007 he went out and started auditioning. The response was overwhelming and he landed 17 roles in 5 months. Not a bad problem to have your first time out of the gate. It wasn't prime-time or the big screen, but it gave him enough confidence to continue to work hard, and He knew he had something special to offer. He's had films in the Asian American Film Festival, New Film Maker Festival, and the film En Route won first place at the Milford Connecticut Film Festival, in which he was the lead. He was nominated for best actor at the Columbia film festival for the short Good Bye. In 2011 he was the lead in the film Down & Across which went to the Cannes film festival. He worked on a TV pilot with the same team called Pitch. The Coffee List was his first attempt at the writer, director, and actor role. The film has been screened at The Katra Film Series and many other screens. John created the web series called Write in Bayonne about a writer who investigates the community and gets into all sorts of trouble. The pilot can be seen on Youtube. In 2019 John was signed to an exclusive contract with Avanti Talent Management in New York City. 2020 looks promising and John is looking to contribute to many projects. Due to this pandemic, John has created a Live talk show on YouTube called The JHS Interviews where he interviews people from all walks of life and focusing on artists and providing value to the audience.
