My favorite fun fact: I was born during the Academy Awards!

 

I like to believe that not everything is a coincidence.

My passion for acting came early, as I performed in my first stage production at the age of 5, then continued to appear in 9 theatrical productions throughout middle and high school.

I also had a growing interest in film, so during my senior year, my friends and I put together a feature-length film, giving me my first experience in front of the camera with a leading role.

Desperate for more training, I attended a 3-week acting intensive program at Yale University, where I was trained by industry professionals Jess McLeod, Ron Carlos, Adeola Role, and Nikkole Salter.

I continued my acting path in college, where I received a B.A. in Theatre Performance from Western Connecticut State University. During my time there, I performed in 5 MainStage productions, 2 one-acts, and 3 independent films. I received training from industry professionals Sal Trapani, John Hickok, Michael Bartoli, Chris Bolan, Neal Lerner, and Phillip George.

When the 2020 pandemic hit and the industry was put on hold, I decided to take that as an opportunity to travel before I settled into my career. I renovated an empty cargo van into a tiny home on wheels and hit the road for almost a full year - you can read more about those adventures on my van life page.

When I’m not acting, you can find me hiking, camping, traveling, and spending quality time with my family and my dogs. I also love to practice yoga, and I am currently in a 250-hour yoga teacher training course - something that I feel strengthens me as a person and allows me to be more in touch with the characters I embody.

I am an Associate Member of the Television Academy. I am currently in pre-production for my upcoming short film, Before Midnight. More info to come soon!
