about me…
A valley native… but not the “valley “ you’re thinking of! Born and raised in McAllen, Texas(Rio Grande Valley) turned New Yorker for the pursuit of a degree from Molloy CAP 21.
When stepping into a character, I lean towards the girl next door archetype with an open heart. No matter what role I portray, I bring myself and vulnerability to the part. Whether that is a grieving mother, a teen exploring her sexuality, or a woman trying to break her way into the workforce, you will see my character fight for a better existence. I create a sense of optimism and hopefulness to accompany the struggle in any role I play.
roles I gravitate towards
Carole King in “Beautiful”
Daisy Jones in “Daisy Jones and the Six”
Sheila in “Hair”
Jenna in “Waitress”
outside of theatre
A beach girl at heart, with city girl motivation! I grew up near the water, which guides the way I go through life… grounded yet fluid. Some of my favorite things(other than performing) are: coffee, my little sisters, dogs, jazz music, reading, family, and a good beach trip. From a very early age, I performed pop, jazz, Christmas music, and my own original songs for the audiences of my hometown restaurants and festivals. When I wasn’t doing that, I was playing make believe in the back yard as a mermaid or a pirate, and in my later years, competitively swimming. I’m a shell collector, coffee walk and yapper, and big sister at the end of the day.
