Founder / Executive Director

Jeremy received his Fine and Performing Arts degree in the Theatrical Arts with a performance emphasis from the University of Nebraska - Lincoln and was awarded the top scholarship for actors at UN-L two consecutive years.  After an Augustinian-like conversion of heart during this time, Jeremy forfeited his scholarship in order to focus more time and energy on growing in his relationship with Jesus Christ.

Upon graduating from UN-L, Jeremy spent a year in the Catholic seminary after which he spent two years as the Director of Youth Ministry for a parish in Lincoln, NE.  In June of 2003, Jeremy started Epiphany Studio Productions as a means of combining his passion and love for the Catholic faith with his passion and talents in the theater.  He has since performed for thousands of audience members in the U.S. as well as Internationally at World Youth Day 2005 in Cologne, Germany, and World Youth Day 2008 in Sydney, Australia.
