A theatre actor at heart, Massi's stage work as Michael Newsome in Accommodation, a new play by Greg Burdick, landed him the "Breakout Performance In A Play" award by Stage Scene LA.

His features possess the beauty and physique of a Michelangelo statue, perfectly suited to the role of the beautiful young model. He is radiant in his younger form and deeply haunted in his older one."
