SINGER / ACTOR / DANCER
I am a singer/actor/dancer with a BFA in Musical Theatre from the University of Utah, recently located to New York City. I am a member of the Equity Membership Candidacy program and have been performing locally and professionally for many years. There are few things in this world that bring me more joy than telling stories.
Born and raised in the midwest, I grew up very active in my local theatre scene. I enjoyed playing a handful of sports and being involved in leadership activities, but my primary love was always performing. I spent four wonderful years in Salt Lake City getting my BFA, a time which was heavily influenced by several opportunities to work with the area’s impressive regional theaters. I graduated in May of 2018 and relocated to NYC in January of 2019.
