about
me
I was raised in New Orleans where I grew up training as an Olympic-track gymnast. As I reached teenhood, I shifted my focus to competitive-league soccer before heading out to Seattle for college where I found acting. After I graduated, I moved to NYC to train further and earned my MFA from The New School for Drama. There, I studied under some phenomenal teachers: Kathleen Chalfant, Peter Jay Fernandez, Cotter Smith, David Chambers, Joe Grifasi, Erica Fae and many more. After graduating, I continued to study under Dianne Weist, Erica Jensen, Maria Dizzia, and with the Bob Krakower technique.
​
After a decade in New York, I made the move out west and I now happily live in Portland, OR where I continue to work bi-coastally in film, tv, and theatre.
As a gender non-conforming actor, I'm consistently cast in roles written about folks who are exploring the spectrum of gender. Much of my recent work reflects that, and the characters I'm called in for are people who are fighting to be seen, heard, and taken seriously in situations where those things seem impossible.

a staged reading
I'm joining this lovely cast, assembled by director Annie Leonard, to tell a truly moving and meaningful story as part of PATA's Fertile Ground festival.
​
Join us at The Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education on Sunday, April 6 to witness a play that portrays a therapy session in Germany where descendants of Nazi perpetrators and descendants of Holocaust victims meet to act out their fraught histories and seek a path towards understanding. The play focuses on the possibility of making amends and can be viewed as a Holocaust education tool. It also speaks out to the truth that must be faced in our people’s past and the international violence and issues of anti-Semitism on the current world stage.
