I’m a high-energy actor and educator who is passionate about using the arts to spark imagination, foster human connection, and inspire positive change. I thrive on bringing energy, joy, and creativity into everything I do. Currently, I am a professional actor as well as faculty member at The University of Alabama where I specialize in teaching movement based acting classes.

My Background

I hold a BFA in Musical Theatre from Samford University, where I embraced a range of roles, from Sylvia to Every Brilliant Thing, directed The Wolves, and performed professionally in Henry V (First Folio) and Cabaret (VST). After undergrad, I interned in Acting and Social Media Management with JET Theatre in metro-Detroit, playing Patty Simcox in Grease, understudying Anne Frank in a virtual TYA production, and running JET’s Instagram and website. I earned my MFA in Acting from The University of Alabama (Roll Tide!) where I took on dynamic roles such as Toinette in The Imaginary Invalid and Cassius in Julius Caesar as well as directing Macbitches. For my graduate thesis, I co-wrote, starred in, and led the marketing for the short film Crux, which won the Beyond the Bubble International Film Festival’s Best Short Film award.

After grad school, I starred in Birmingham Children’s Theater’s The Little Engine That Could and the next year, choreographed their production of The Jungle Book. I starred in the short film Return to Sender for which I won the Best Actress Award at The University of Alabama’s JCM Showcase. In the spring of 2026, I wrote and performed in Premium, a one-act play that explores the awkwardness and complexity of adolescence during the competitive world of dance in the early 2010s. This autobiographical piece performed by adults was a joy to produce and perform.

I hold a 500-hour certification in yoga and love to blend embodied practices with script analysis and moment work in the classroom, having taught special topics such as solo performance, careers for actors, Shakespeare, and yoga for actors for both undergraduate and graduate students at The University of Alabama.
