Welcome to my page! I’m a Los Angeles & Atlanta based actress/ writer/ director/ producer/ pitbull rescuer/ lover of slashes. A California girl born and raised, I attended the University of Southern California (FIGHT ON!!!!) where I graduated Magna Cum Laude (giving me something pretentious sounding to brag about) with a B.S. in Music Industry and minors in Business, Communications, and Theatre.
I’ve always had a great appreciation for the arts and an intense love of the stage. I’m intrigued by the power art has to move, connect, and unite people. As Tyrion says in Game of Thrones “no one can resist a good story.” I believe in the power of storytelling and have always been driven to be part of the process. After all, it’s how we make sense of this crazy thing called life.
Growing up, my eccentric- yet very talented- extended family put on talent shows every summer where we would sing, dance, play instruments, and do full blown productions of plays. In high school I began acting and dancing in school productions and continued to do so while attending USC.
After college, I took that long held love of performing and began pursuing a professional career as an actress. In 2013 I made my small screen debut on the long running soap opera “Days of Our Lives” and the hit Showtime series “Dexter." I’ve filmed national commercials for brands such as Budweiser, Toyota, Gap, Valley View Casino, and many more. As a model, I’ve been featured in everything from FHM Magazine to charity pin up calendars to major commercial print ads to coffee table books and art galleries across the country and abroad.
Shockingly uninspired by playing endless variations of “hot blonde,” “dumb blonde” and “hot dumb blonde” I decided to branch out into writing and producing. I co-wrote my first pilot in 2018, a dark comedy entitled "Tithes" with my writing partner Eric Williford. Tithes was recently a semi finalist in The Script Lab, WeScreenplay and Screencraft’s Pilot contests. Another of our pilots “The Other City” was recently a semi finalist at the highly competitive Austin Film Festival.
In April of 2021 our comedic webseries “DisGraced” premiered at the Women’s Comedy Film Festival. It played at over 45 film festivals (including Holly Shorts & Dances with Films), garnered over 20 award nominations and 10 wins including multiple Best Comedy, Best Writing, and BEst Actress wins.
We recently completed production on two feature length horror films: “Lexi” and “Cold Blows the Wind.” “Lexi” is currently available on VOD and has a cult following of Found Footage fans. Cold Blows the Wind recently finished its festival run where it won multiple Best Feature awards, and will be available on VOD July 2, 2024.
I’m a huge animal lover, a proud dog mom to three rescue pitbulls, and part of the Leadership Team for Angel City Pitbulls, a 501c3 dedicated to supporting high intake shelters and the Los Angeles community of pitbull adopters. I’m also a self proclaimed foodie, which I credit to coming from a long line of fantastic Italian cooks; and an avid lover of traveling.
I love being part of the creative process & am so very grateful for the opportunity to do it.
Thank you for checking out my page ;)
