While studying in [[Ontario]] he started the Canadian chapter of his theatre company, which immediately became a huge success. He went on to study management programs at [[Harvard University]] and studied acting at [[Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute|Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute]], [[New York City|New York]].
