About Me
I am an American actor based in London and a recent graduate of LAMDA's MA Classical Acting program. I also sing, dance, write, and direct. When I am not performing or creating I teach LAMDA exams and work 1:1 as an acting coach. I am heavily influenced by the classics and am drawn to adaptations and reimaginings in my work.
BACKGROUND
I’ve been a performer my entire life, starting
early in ballet and eventually finding my way
to the theatre. My mother is a former Broadway
performer-turned-choreographer, so there was
no escaping this life for me; not that I ever
wanted to.
In 2018 I received my BFA in acting from the
University of Houston. Shortly after I worked
professionally in the Houston theatre scene as an
actor and dialect coach, a skill I was able to
develop while in school thanks to mentors Sara
Becker and Jim Johnson.
Notable roles from my time in Houston include
Marya in The Government Inspector at Classical
Theatre Company. I also collaborated with friends
and former classmates on two productions, led by
Carmon Alexander, including a seven person
Midsummer Night’s Dream and an intimate,
contemporary adaptation of Hedda Gabler.
In 2021, in the midst of Covid-19, I moved to
Chicago to take the next step in my career. I also
made the decision to pursue a masters degree
during this time, ultimately choosing LAMDA.
LAMDA
LAMDA pushed me in every way to become a better artist, studying Meisner, Chekhov, Linklater, voice and text, political speech, clown, mask, and many other techniques while also working on some of the most challenging plays I've ever come across. I also wrote an incredibly personal 20 minute one woman show for my thesis project, a piece that was well-received by my peers and mentors and something I plan to continue working on in the future. During this year I developed my leadership skills by working as a student rep for my course, communicating with both staff and students to help ensure a conducive work environment.
LONDON
I graduated from LAMDA in 2023 and since have performed in musical theatre cabarets, scratch nights, and rehearsed readings in London. I have also directed and produced and am a founding member of the LAMDA Alumni Company.
