I started out onstage, playing the pivotal role of Kid #4 in my elementary schools production of Dear Edwina. This is where theatre first hooked me with its chaos, creativity, and magic. Eventually, I headed to New York to earn my BFA in Musical Theatre, diving into the world of the greeks in Iphigenia and Other Daughters, creating new work in Peter/Piper, and challenging gender norms as Harding in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Then came my love for film! I've had the amazing opportunity to be able to work on so many incredible independent productions, and I look forward to continue telling stories.

​

I’m driven by original storytelling, especially pieces that spotlight female and queer voices. I have a soft spot for anything a little weird — from absurdist comedy to horror — and I love how these genres can surprise, unsettle, and move audiences in unexpected ways. This is why my production company, Stubborn Little Spark, focuses on genre films.

​

Whether I’m screaming, laughing, or doing both at once, I’m always chasing stories that are bold, strange, and full of heart.
