i was born in Saginaw, MI and mostly raised in the Metro Detroit area.

i was classically trained on the piano starting at age 5 and played a smattering of other instruments including clarinet, violin and most notably percussion. i also played basketball, volleyball, and ran track while performing in marching band.

after auditioning for a play for high school acting class , i entered the magical world of theater and never looked back. i went on to undergrad at Indiana State University and finished my BFA at Northern Michigan University in 2025 in Musical Theater. I have over a decade of training in theatre, music, dance, and technical theater. when not performing onstage, i like to work my practical training skills in lighting design, sound, stage crew and stage management. i believe it is crucial to understand both the performative and technical aspects that work cohesively to bring a production to fruition, it also informs respect for every level of artistry.

as a performer I believe in that all stories are human stories that deserve to be told openly, honestly, and with respect. i like to embody a character not just in words but in physicality and with every part of my body as i would in dance.

I enjoy having fun with a cast but know there is a time for work and a time for play. I enjoy any opportunity to learn something new and embrace new challenges. I believe in checking your baggage at the door and approaching any problem with a mindset of attitude and effort.
