As a storyteller who acts, directs, and writes, I gravitate toward stories expressing dynamic and dysfunctional relationships that reflect our social and interpersonal climate. I aspire to make stories and storytelling more accessible to and representative of marginalized artists and patrons. I lean toward performing, directing, and/or writing stories that center queer and/or disabled voices.  

I am a bi-coastal artist based in NYC and am represented by The Luedtke Agency. I have been performing in film since 2011, regional theatre (plays/musicals) since 2015, writing plays/novels and directing plays/musicals since 2018, providing audition support coaching since 2019, and in 2023 began working as an accessible theatre consultant. My educational experience includes a Theatre Arts BFA (Acting, Directing, Writing) with an emphasis in Social and Racial Justice and Communications from Boston University, Intimacy Direction and Coordination with Intimacy Directors and Coordinators (IDC) Professionals in NYC, and an Associates Degree in General Studies (AGS) from Portland Community College with focuses in writing, folklore, and philosophy (particularly philosophy of art and beauty). 

Recent projects include: Lead role, Hannah, in After Shock (MFA graduate short film social justice project), Director The Beautification Committee, Director of Every Brilliant Thing, Assistant Director/Asst Movement/Asst Intimacy to Yo-El Cassell forYerma by Frederico García Lorca, Ensemble in One Penny Down (a devised promenade style production) by Kirsten Greenidge, Asst Director /Asst Movement Director/Asst Intimacy Director to Vanessa Ogbuehi (Dir) and Yo-El Cassell (Movement/Intimacy) for Orlando by Sarah Ruhl and directed by Vanessa Ogbuehi, The Mountains Are Calling… and The Tallies (plays written by me and presented as a staged reading as part of the Boston University's School of Theatre Springboard Festival), Tom Ripley in Switzerland by Joanna Murray-Smith, and Assistant Director/Music Director The Moors by Jen Silverman and directed by Roz Bevan.
