Thanks for visiting my website. I am a New York based actor auditioning for theatre, commercial and TV/film. I am currently seeking representation.
I love dramatic pandemic hair changes!
Before lockdown in early 2020, I booked and shot a commercial through Adrienne Stern casting and took an on-camera class with Devin Shacket, and commercial improv class with Barry Shapiro. Early that March I did a table read of the new musical Chaining Zero (formerly DERAILED). I hit winter/spring audition season head-on and was cast as Gloria in Return to the Forbidden Planet at Greenbrier Valley Theater, but unfortunately, due to COVID19, the production was canceled. To ease my pain, my incredible husband helped me record "Go Now" which you can listen to here.
In the socially-distanced recording world, I played Helen (and Gert) in DBP Radio Theater's action-adventure style podcast, Megaballs. This was my second project with them, having previously played Daisy in the film noir-style podcast, Beigey, PI.
My pandemic has been spent walking 600 miles over the course of a few months with my husband, becoming a runner again, getting serious about being as zero-waste as possible, and falling in love with the MCU, which I never cared about before, and am now obsessed with. Please ask me to do my impression of Nebula for you; it is spot on.
