A bit about me...

Photo: Michael Albany Photography

An actress at heart, and an outspoken activist since I was a kid, my life long love of performance stems from my belief that through better understanding we might better ourselves, and better the world around us.

Performing is my true passion but I've worked in many capacities on projects.

Some Highlights:

PRODUCED twenty six unique events as co-owner of Touch Me Philly Productions. Worked on production design, direction, costuming, performance, curation, writing, casting, marketing, and more
PERFORMED dozens of original parody songs at cabaret, burlesque, comedy, and festival events, including as Resident Host of La Maison Rose Burlesque for 5 years
CREATED and played Stabigail, a zombie Horror Hostess of undead.. um, I mean live... yes... live late night screenings of indie shorts and films
WON two awards in the 2019 Project 21 Short Film Festival for You Get Born, a short that I cowrote, coproduced, and performed in.
PORTRAYED Emma Goldman in Howard Zinn's Emma. Ok, it was a while ago, but that show meant a lot to me on many levels and will always be a highlight for me- no matter what else I do.
