Because Real Always Resonates
My commitment to truth and authenticity began at an early age. In the third grade, I felt so bad about lying to my mom about my math homework that I immediately started crying and came clean. That instinct — to be truthful, real, and present — shapes not only my approach to life, but my approach to acting and voice acting. Whether doubling down on the absurdity of a character's authentic quirks and personality with impeccable comedic timing, bringing to life the pain and suffering of the human experience, or simply providing the confident, non-anxious presence of the compassionate therapist, skilled attorney, or loyal best friend, my performances are authentic, compelling, and engaging, inviting those watching and listening to experience life from someone else’s shoes. Everyone has a story. I feel lucky to be in a profession where I can give those stories a voice — and bring them to life with honesty and heart.
About Me
Behind the Scenes
Some fun moments from various plays, films sets, and course work
In addition to being an actor and voice actor, I am a partner, daughter, sister, and mom to three incredible boys and one ball-obsessed dog. When not on stage, in front of the camera, or behind a microphone, I can be found on the pickleball court, playing a board game, or belting songs from The Little Mermaid in my car.
Quiet strength meets sharp human comedy
Grounded like Mariska Hargitay, fearless like Laurie Metcalf
“Acting is the ability to behave truthfully under imaginary circumstances.”
