Originally from Thousand Oaks, California, a small suburb of Los Angeles, I began my stage acting and camera training at Moorpark Community College under the tutelage of John Loprieno. Collaborating in One Act festivals, new work plays, and short films to build a strong resume, and transcript, to transfer to Columbia College Chicago. My goal was to further explore the art of comedy and independent theater. 

After receiving my Bachelor’s Degree in Theater I continued my training at The Second City Training Center and the iO Chicago. As part of STRIPES improv group we performed in yoga studios and festivals alike, leading me to several sketch comedy teams. After performing in several Chicago sketch and improv festivals, and an internship with the Porchlight Music Theater, I decided to invest more in training for the screen. I enrolled in several on camera classes at the Acting Studio Chicago. 

Los Angeles raised me, but Chicago taught me how to live. The Midwest has provided me with opportunities and training that made me a skilled actor in comedy and drama. Now my goal, an ambitious one, is to live and work in two cities. I am fortunate to have such a creative life and you can catch me working on scenes at the Acting Studio Chicago or performing with the Chicago Screenwriters Network.
