A Lawton, Oklahoma native, EnRiCo, moved to Los Angeles as a teenager, escaping a troubled childhood that included surviving severe neglect and sexual abuse. After spending half of high school homeless, he attended The University of Southern California. He was the first non-Asian member in the Asian Greek Council, joining Beta Omega Phi fraternity. While there he held a work study job in the Theatre Department of the California Science Museum, performing a one-person show called “Your Incredible Brain”. Post 9-11 his life took a detour and Enrico enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, partially inspired by the death of a middle school classmate who died in the attack on the Pentagon. He lost over 100lbs in a month to qualify for the infamously arduous Marine Corps training. He ended up serving in both Iraq and Afghanistan. His love for a steady paycheck lead him to be an IT professional, working for numerous Fortune 500 companies including Apple, Proctor & Gamble, and building out worldwide solutions on classified and sensitive projects in Germany, Korea, and Japan. He has spent the past seven years, attempting to establish himself in the entertainment scene in Los Angeles. Whether he is in front of or behind the camera, Enrico is known for his love of breathing life into fascinating stories, places, and characters that capture the audience and leave a lasting impression.
His first television pilot “Two Tigers” was a Quarter Finalist in the Emerging Screenwriter’s contest.
He is a rabid USC Trojans fan.
He also makes music under the moniker “Cooler Than You.”
