About
Actor
I always had an affinity for the performing arts... My aunt was - and still is - an actor when I was coming up, and I always found it so fascinating how everyone knew how to do and say everything so perfectly. I guess you could say that's when I got the first bite. But it didn't settle in until 2006 in my church's youth group, in a play about Daniel and the Lion's Den. I was hooked from then on!
​
I attended a high school with a phenomenal acting program that fed my creativity. From there, I went to community college and participated in the theatre program there. Then, to West Chester University of PA to get my bachelors in Theatre: Performance, performing in productions throughout my schooling. After graduating, I moved to the DC Metro Area and have been working as mostly a performer with some dabbling in other branches of theater ever since!
​
Outside of that, I am someone you'll find embroidering, kayaking, shooting arrows, taking pictures of mushrooms and dogs, and generally getting into feral tomfoolery.
Playwright
Since high school, I've always had an interest in writing. Mostly short stories, some poems, but also plays. Predominately, I'm interested in telling stories about and featuring Black women as it is an experience near and dear to my heart for obvious reasons. So far only two plays have been featured in playwrighting festivals but be on the look out for more!

Committed to My Craft
Throughout my career, I’ve constantly pushed myself as an actor in order to hone my craft - from meticulously studying the great performances to taking on a wide variety of roles. I’ve worked hard at developing my own artistic voice and making sure I stand out in the acting scene.
