About Me!
It's fitting that I was raised in Roswell, New Mexico because I've always felt like a bit of an alien. I never quite fit in. (Literally - I've been 5'10" since the 5th grade.) Expressing myself through drama, showchoir, and fashion in a small southwestern town didn't help my case. But I'm a Libra ruled by Venus, and I just couldn't help it.
Since graduating, I've continued to develop my acting craft and other newfound passions along the way- including Yoga, Pilates, Barre, and modeling. I also find joy in art, nature, travel, bar-craft, cooking and scuba diving.
And in case you were wondering, I still feel like an alien. But I've now come to realize that standing out is something to embrace and celebrate, and I wouldn't have it any other way <3
Unsurprisingly, I found my place in the heart of NYC (the Theater District specifically) where I recently graduated from the NYU Tisch School of the Arts.
I received classical training as a method actress within The Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute. Among other things, I took special interest in studying Shakespearean performance, stage combat, and singing. I also studied film acting technique and production at Stonestreet Studios.
