Adam attended the High School for the Performing and Visual Arts in Houston, studied filmmaking at Vassar, interned at Good Machine, then studied acting in NYC with renowned teachers Maggie Flanigan and Wynn Handman, and was selected for the residency program at Steppenwolf. He worked as a copywriter and strategist for clients such as Verizon, Pepsi and Google, then fell back into his artsy ways by writing TV scripts and working with Oscar-BAFTA nominees to sell Academy Award- and Emmy-nominated The Great Hack to Netflix and The Vow to HBO and The Lincoln Project to Showtime. He wrote a feature with Oscar-winner David Seidler (The King’s Speech) and is probably at his desk, tapping away at some new project. Adam speaks French and Spanish, and once upon a time lived with a princess in Paris.
