Erick Chavarria

Erick lahir dan besar di Guatemala. Sejak usia 5 tahun Erick tahu dia ingin menjadi seorang aktor. Saat tumbuh besar di desa kecil bersama kakek dan neneknya, dia akan memerankan kembali adegan-adegan dari Sinetron yang dia tonton bersama neneknya malam sebelumnya. Saat remaja ia pindah ke Amerika Serikat dan mendapat kesempatan kuliah untuk belajar administrasi bisnis. Sesampainya di perguruan tinggi ia mendaftar di kelas pengenalan akting dan di sanalah impian masa kecilnya untuk menjadi seorang aktor bangkit kembali. Setelah itu masuk ke kelas akting dan dengan penuh semangat dan ketakutan Erick mengubah jurusannya ke akting. Beberapa tahun kemudian Erick menerima gelar Sarjana Seni Rupa di bidang pertunjukan teater dari Universitas Maryland Baltimore County. Sebelum menekuni dunia akting di depan kamera, Erick sempat berkesempatan tampil di panggung. Beberapa peran favoritnya termasuk Valentin dalam The Kiss of the Spider Woman, dan Marmeladov dalam produksi asli Crime & Punishment. Beberapa kredit televisi terkenal termasuk Eastbound & Down, The Bridge, Back in The Game dan Southland. Perpaduan rasa senang dan takut yang dirasakan Erick saat berpindah jurusan saat kuliah akan menjadi tema yang berulang dalam hidupnya sebagai seorang aktor.

Erick was born and raised in Guatemala. As early as 5 years old Erick knew he wanted to be an actor. While growing up in a small village with his grandparents he would reenact scenes from the Soap Operas he had watched with his grandmother the previous night. As a teenager he moved to the United States and got the opportunity to go to college to study business administration. Once in college he enrolled in an intro to acting class and that's where his childhood dream of being an actor was reawakened. After that intro to acting class and with much excitement and fear Erick changed his major to acting. A few years later Erick received his Bachelor's in Fine Arts degree in theater performance from the University of Maryland Baltimore County. Before pursuing acting for the camera Erick had the opportunity to perform for the stage. Some of his favorite roles include Valentin in The Kiss of the Spider Woman, and Marmeladov in an original production of Crime & Punishment. Some notable television credits include Eastbound & Down, The Bridge, Back in The Game and Southland. That combination of excitement and fear Erick felt when switching majors in college would become a recurring theme in his life as an actor.
