Have I got a story for you…
Assisting the composition of story as Actor, Director, and Producer for the stage and screen.
As an international performing artist and Director, I have contributed to theatre premieres, children's theatre tours, Shakespeare and classics, puppetry, contemporary American theatre, immersive experiences, performance art, and Film and Television.
I am a proud Alumnus of the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, the Royal Birmingham Conseravoire, the College of Charleston, and the late Colorado Film School; as well as a member of Actor’s Equity Association.
Other recorded media skillsets include 1st AD, Script Supervisor, Casting Director, and Intimacy Coordinator. How can I help your project?

ONWARD AND UPWARD.
As a movement practitioner, I am trained in many modalities including Laban, Alexander Technique, Feldenkrais, Viewpoints and Suzuki method, Skinner Releasing Technique, and in process of Yoga Alliance certification. I approach voice and movement work from the breath and am in development of my own methodology for actors from yogic principles. I trained in conservatoire in the British tradition, Stanislovski and Psychological Realism, Linklater, Lessac, Grotowski, Meisner, and the Estil Model for voice. I strive to deepen my relationship between the self and audience by bearing witness to all that is awesome.
I cry as easily as I laugh, and try not to be ashamed about it. Other superpowers include championing creatives and building teams. Ever curious, I am always adventuring, collaborating, gathering. After losing my father in 2011, I began my journey as a Death Doula. Current pursuits include hiking Mt. Kilimanjaro and getting my Sport Pilot’s License.
