He studied at The Groundlings and was asked to join the prestigious Groundlings Sunday Company. His extensive background in improvisation has helped him book over 100 television commercials and co-star and guest starring roles in TV shows such as "Modern Family," "Parks and Recreation," "Brooklyn 9-9," and "NCIS."

"I am thrilled to be working with new actors at Moorpark College," said Hornor, "and I love to use improv as a tool to unlock an actor's presence and playfulness."

"One of the reasons the Theatre Arts program at Moorpark College has earned its stellar reputation is that we have prioritized bringing industry professionals on all levels into our classrooms," said Suzanne Fagan, Full-time Theatre Arts faculty member.  "These new faculty members share amazing stories from their time on set and instruct on what works best for actors in an audition as well as what to be aware of to maximize their efforts while also protecting themselves on the set and in the industry.  I am so excited for the students at Moorpark College to have these talented individuals who genuinely have a passion to help them succeed as performers."
