Hey there!
I'm an Equity actress based in New York City. I spent a few years in sunny California, first for an MFA at the prestigious UC Irvine, and then in tech-boom San Francisco where I had the privilege of working with the great talents at the San Francisco Shakespeare Festival as a Resident Artist.
Lately, I've been playing with some good friends at Shotz (check us out at the Kraine Theater in the East Village) and developing brand new physical theater with brickabrack. My contact info is on the Contact tab If you'd like to get in touch or just want to talk about Shakespeare and feminism with someone nice.
