About Me
Originally hailing from our nation's capital, I have been performing since before I can remember. My family is fond of the story where, at six years of age, without any warning or clear impetus, I stood up and recited from memory the text from a cassette-tape version of Snow White. I now spend my days working to regain the spontaneity and fearlessness that it appears I had as a child. Upon graduating high school I enrolled in school at Marietta College in Ohio earning my BFA in Theatre and BA in Political Science. After many classes and four years I eventually learned that acting was now harder than it was in high school. So I promptly moved 50 minutes west to Athens, Ohio where I completed my MFA in Acting at Ohio University where I learned that it is, in fact, even harder than it was in undergrad. But 19 consecutive years of school is a long time. And 7 of those in southeast Ohio somehow longer. And so it was that in May of 2015 with three degrees, one of them terminal, I found myself a permanent resident of New York City. After 8 years in the city I have built a career that I am proud of and hope to continue adding to! Though the future is uncertain, I look forward to the challenge, knowing only that I plan to submit for every single production of Snow White in the New York Metropolitan Area. |

Van Gogh's Yellow House
In 1888 Vincent Van Gogh moved to the south of France and began renting four rooms in a quaint little yellow house. He dreamed of bringing all of his artist friends to this place where they would live, eat and work together. I was lucky enough to visit Paris in the spring of 2010 and I saw this painting in person. Van Gogh's dream never came to fruition, and the yellow house was destroyed during World War II but its message continues to inspire me. |
