About Me
I am a San Francisco-based marketing and communications professional and stage actor, with a passion for storytelling that bridges diverse narratives and champions equity. Holding an MFA in Theater and Contemporary Performance from Naropa University, I have developed a rich background in performance, including certification in Somatic Movement Therapy from the Moving On Center in Berkeley.
My training encompasses a variety of disciplines, including Fitzmaurice and Roy Hart voice training, Viewpoints pedagogy, Commedia dell'arte, and embodied poetics. I have honed my craft through programs at the American Conservatory Theater and Studio 200 in San Francisco, focusing on techniques that range from the Alexander Technique to modern dance and site-specific performances.
I am actively seeking opportunities in theater, acting, and modeling. As a member of the Actors' Equity Association, I bring a professional commitment to every project. My portfolio encompasses a diverse range of performances that reflect my commitment to exploring the human experience through art.

Moving on Center creates a model of education, one that integrates expressive and performance skills with the healing arts. The 128-hour certification provided me with training improvisation, movement therapy, vocalization, theater arts, dance science and
new dance techniques to gain a broader base of study in performance training and somatic movement study.
