Who am I? That's one secret I'll never tell...

When I was a young girl in Irwin, Pennsylvania I had big dreams. Dreams that included playing dress up, using different names, and living a hundred different lives. That dream was to be a spy. However, after one karate class taken and one karate class quit, I decided acting was the next best thing.

 

After this discovery, I dove head first into musical theatre and grew to thrive in that community. New York University was the channel that pushed me to a whole ocean of performance styles and outlets. Since coming to NYU and studying at The Atlantic Acting School’s studio (class of '23), I fell in love with plays, film, and performance I had never dreamed of when I was hiding secret-coded-spy-notes for my sister to find. Now studying at Stonestreet Studios, I am not only doing what I love, but I'm creating it for myself.
