“I am an actor and performer, but each of my other dimensions informs my art. I am a dancer and singer, a soccer player and hiker. I am a juggler, stilt walker, and archer, each new skill I learn bringing delight. My art extends beyond the stage and camera, finding fruition in the treats I bake and the canvases I paint. My expression of stories finds life in written word as well as the spoken, flowing from my pen into poems and short fables. I am a horseback rider and dog walker, filled with endless love for animals of all species and sizes. I am a Christian and a Catholic, seeking to always put others first and live a life of humility and compassion. Every facet of my identity informs my art. Acting is more than just the work I do while I act, it is the way I live my life—open for each new opportunity and eager to engage with the lives and tales of others.”

“Performing awakes my soul. Creation channels my chaos. Acting offers opportunity to tell stories otherwise forgotten, stories that demand to be told. Dance expresses a vitality that reminds us what it means to be alive. Music vocalizes the emotions impossible to be spoken. These forms of art beckon to me and refuse to be ignored. I am not pursuing an artistic career out of a want, but rather a need. A need to create. A need to inspire. A need to breathe.”
