I am R. Michael Paquette. I am currently working in the exciting fast-paced world of the construction industry. While my job is rewarding in many ways, there are times when I feel my creativity is being stifled. I have always wanted to act in films, but until recently never had the opportunity to do so. Although I have no formal theatrical training, I believe art imitates life, and imitating life is what I do best.

R. Michael Paquette was born in 1977 and is a graduate of Grant Community High school in Fox Lake IL. He currently lives in Lakemoor IL. He brings a raw realism to the characters he plays, which was evident even in his earliest, "amateur" roles opposite his brother W. Joseph. R. Michael's versatility as an actor was also apparent in his multiple role performance in his first official short film, Adam Rench's "A Guy Walks Into A Bar".

R. Michael is currently working on his next project, co-writing and playing the lead role in Joseph Schantz's mystery/thriller "Causality Scheme".
