Nice to Meet You!
It all started with dance class for me. In Leominster, Massachusetts at age 3, I found a spark of joy through dance. Dance pushed me towards acting. Acting led me to directing, writing, and the heart-filled act of connecting with other human beings through art. I am currently finishing up my senior year at Webster University’s Sargent Conservatory of Theatre Arts where I am receiving my BFA in Acting. I am beyond eager for what post-grad life will offer me.
I also do a mean grand battement while holding a mirror!

I focus my artistry on the three pillars I am most passionate about: Words, Movement, and Human Connection.
In addition to getting my BFA in acting, I am also working towards my minor in English. Words are one of my greatest joys in life. I relish any opportunity I can get to dive deep into words and sentences. How does this one string of words say exactly what its writer means to say? How does it affect its audience? My love of words has led me to a fervent passion for Shakespeare. I love unpacking every layer of meaning that the Bard has packed into his verses. Words can change hearts and minds, and they are one of my favorite forms of art.
Movement doesn’t just have to be dancing. It is one of the most holistic forms of communication. Growing up as a dancer, I found joy in moving my body to music, but as I got older, I grew to find how much movement can move other people. I’ve had a lot of experience teaching young people how to dance. I always lead with the notion that anyone can be a dancer. I strive to show young people how they can own themselves completely and tell a story.
Human Connection is all an artist could ask for. Art is best when it is shared. I can’t imagine creating without sharing. Through art, human connection transcends almost any barrier.
