Born and raised in Garland, Texas, John now lives and works in Los Angeles. He started acting professionally in 2002 in short films and local theatre which included musical theatre and many plays; both comedic and dramatic. Over the years, while still in Texas, he earned both his Equity Card (stage actor's union) and his SAG eligibility. He moved to Los Angeles in December of 2013 where he's worked in film, TV, commercials, and voiceover. He's also continued studying with acting teachers including Glenn Morshower, Steven Anderson, Gino Anthony Pesi, and Jeff Elam. Classes in improv with both UCB and The Groundlings in Los Angeles have prepared him to take even more classes at both UCB and The Groundlings.

In addition to acting, he has many credits as a producer, writer, director, composer, and more.

For several years he was a member of the national company of "Defending the Caveman" and did hundreds of performances of the one-man show in venues all over the United States. Included in that work were stints in Las Vegas on The Strip at The Improv inside Harrah's and in old Las Vegas at The D on Fremont Street.

Performs his own brand of deadpan/old west stand-up comedy under the name Slim Taggart.

Is a multi-instrumentalist who can play almost any instrument that the guys in Bachman-Turner Overdrive can play.
