During his time there, he continued honing his craft by performing in dozens of stage productions across the city as well as training in improv and sketch comedy, graduating from the iO Chicago. In 2017, Ricardo made THE BIG MOVE to Los Angeles, where he continues to write, act in film/TV, and work with an amazing FIREFLY THEATRE GROUP.
