My name is Craig Alexander Cosentino. I am a student at Columbia University studying history, and I have been acting since I was ten. Initially, when my folks signed me up for the school musical, "Annie," I was reluctant, but I soon found that performance and the arts are my first loves. After dabbling in theater for a couple of years, I also deeply loved martial arts and action films. Practicing my kicks and punches in the backyard for hours, I thought about eventually bringing the martial arts into performance. I started to make little skits and scenes of my fight scenes with my friends in the backyard, coming up with ways to make the story funny and engaging for the audience. Setting up the camera, having to edit, and showing the scenes to my friends evoked this new orientation of passion. I began acting more in films, editing, writing, and directing, and eventually, my love of theater and martial arts launched me into the film world.
