About Me

Thanks for stopping by!

I have dreamed of a career in acting & entertainment ever since I took part in my first acting/theatre intensive one Summer when I was in Elementary School; a course which culminated in my 1st major role as “Big E.” Pig, the famous rapper cousin to the Three Little Pigs, in a play centered around the fairy tale trial of the Big Bad Wolf.

Prior to making the inevitable decision that the career I wanted to seriously pursue was one in theatre/musical theatre and film, I went through a phase where I considered training to become a professional wrestler. Although that didn’t come to fruition — at least not yet — I do believe that the elements shared between pro wrestling and a more traditional theatrical production is what appealed to me in the first place. It wasn’t until I saw a touring production of Wicked at Chrysler Hall in Norfolk, VA, that I realized where my passion truly lied.

[*Fun Fact: Two of My Favorite Pro Wrestlers — Dave Bautista & Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson — are also currently two of My Favorite Actors]

Fast forward a few years, to Spring 2018. It was my 3rd time as well as my 3rd year in a row auditioning for Virginia Commonwealth University’s Theatre program, and after being waitlisted then ultimately denied on the 2nd occasion, I was sitting there telling myself to be calm because I had decided that if I was denied again that I must take it as a sign that this pursuit must not be meant for me… It would seem that the 3rd time was indeed the charm, and shortly thereafter I received my acceptance letter into TheatreVCU! In Spring 2021, I graduated from VCU with a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre Performance. During my time there, I can proudly say that I performed in 12 productions (plays & musicals/workshops; both, in-person & virtual) as well as 2 virtual cabarets (one of which was a solo show that I wrote for myself, entitled: Bolling Disney), created my own Horror Fiction Podcast {The Ghost Light Theater}, performed voiceover for numerous podcasts & short films, joined the Honor Society, and made the Dean’s List every semester that I was in the Theatre department.

Now that you’ve gotten to know me a little better, I’d love to connect with you and, hopefully, create some truly amazing art together. That is, if you’re looking for a passionate, determined, hard-working, creative, joyful individual to collaborate with? If so, my email is below, or you can always visit my contact page!
