About me

Hi. I'm a classically trained American actress with 20 years of experience on stage and in the film industry. I've performed in leading roles (Art, Lysistrata, Beautiful Baby Boy, Charity, Suicide Sundays), supporting roles (Marvin, award-winning Broken Clouds by two-time Emmy winner Yuri Alves), voiceover (award-winning short RadioMoon), and commercial productions (Dextro Energy, Google, AT&T), to name a few.
 
I spent two years behind the camera as 2nd and 1st AC, co-wrote and acted in the short horror film Limbus.
 
Since relocating to Berlin in 2023, I have worked on numerous Berlin sets, booked my first commercial, a brand film, a supporting role in a short film, a handful of modeling projects, and became a producing partner with Berlin’s Proximity Productions Theater Collective. I also starred as “Anna” in the theatrical run of Patrick Marber’s Closer. 
I am represented by DBA Agency
