About Me

Trying to inspire change and be a beacon of light and connectivity through my art.

 

I'm a multi-hyphenate performer based in NYC, originally from Yorktown, Virginia. In May of 2024 I graduated from NYU Tisch with a B.F.A in Drama. And in my last semester I was lucky enough to play the title character in my Off-Broadway debut with Tisch New Theatre's Alice By Heart. Alice and I are alike in our eternal child-like wonder with the world and our intrinsic need to make light in dark spaces.

Besides theatre I am a proud cat mom, nature-lover, book nerd (please talk to me about books), and huge clown. I take performing and learning very seriously, and myself much less so. I try to foster a warm, energetic, and safe environment because that is where I feel the most comfortable to create and connect. I was also the Music Director of the NYU Cleftomaniacs, an award-winning acapella group, for two years. In my time with the group I grew to love music theory, music composition, and teaching. My time at NYU has been paramount in molding me into the unique artist and person I am today and I am excited to find more artists who are also passionate and curious about human-nature, love, and art.

P.S. Follow me on social media to keep up with my journey !
