Growing up in Hudson Valley, NY I was introduced to the world of theater at a young age. Some of my most formative memories surround my family train rides to see something new and exciting on broadway. It was then that I developed  a strong pull to the theatrical hub of New York City, which I have felt ever since.   Following high school I attended several universities to study the craft of theater, receiving an AS in Performing Arts from SUNY Dutchess and a BA in Theatre Performance from Western Connecticut State University. My primary focus within the theatre is contemporary plays and the message of change that theatre can enforce and inform. Some of my favorite playwrights include Lynn Nottage, Clare Barron, and Martin McDonagh. Having graduated from college in 2022, I made it my mission to follow my pull to New York City, where I now reside.

I have trained in several acting techniques, including Uta Hagan, Suzuki Method, Viewpoints, and the Meisner Technique, taught by Broadway alum John Hickok. I have also taken a summer intensive at the Stella Adler Institute, where I learned under Ron Burrus’ apprentice, Patrick Quagliano. I have studied with professionals such as Tony-nominated Liz Parkinson and award-winning director Chris Bolan. On-campus, I played leading roles such as Judge Turpin in Sweeney Todd, Lloyd Dallas in Noises Off, and Claude in Hair–-to which I received a Kennedy Center Richard Maltby Award nomination. 

I aim to build an inclusive community of theatre practitioners with each project I am involved in. When our society is as aware of each other as we have ever been, I believe knowing how to communicate productively is essential. 

Also, I have found the creation of new works to be a deep interest of mine. Crafting and creating on an empty canvas I believe leaves room for creatives to capture their strongest work.
