As an actor, I have had the opportunity to use my artistic talents through Theater, Television and Film. I am now working on using my creative talents in new creative directions to help produce and create space for stories that are underrepresented. It was during my work on the production of HANDS UP in Portland, Oregon, that helped inspire me to expand my voice as an artist and activist. I am excited and appreciative of the opportunity to do some meaningful work and continue to lay a foundation for social justice through the arts. Having the opportunity to work in two August Wilson plays, Jitney & Seven Guitars, helped influence my inspiration to mix arts with activism, which later led to the immeasurable opportunity to work with Anna Deavere Smith on her HBO special, Notes From The Field.
I am a graduate from Rutgers University's Mason Gross School of the Arts M.F.A Acting program (2020), and I spent six months training/performing at Shakespeare's Globe in London.
