ABOUT ME


Recently graduated from the Dobbins Conservatory at Southeast Missouri State University with my BFA in Musical Theatre, I am now based in Denver, Colorado.

I bring a lot of physical energy into my performances, both through dancing and physical comedy. Through acting, I maintain a wonderfully grounded and intelligent presence.

Outside of performing, I am heavily interested in written works. Having worked as a writing consultant at the Center for Writing Excellence, I am able to think both critically and artistically about a script. This has inspired me to explore directing and choreographing as well as performing.
