A New York City native, I have worked as an actor in Film, TV, Theater, Commercials and Voiceover for over a decade. Having graduated from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, I trained for both the camera and the stage at the Stella Adler Studio of Acting, in addition to studying methods for creating original work at the Experimental Theatre Wing. After working on both the east and west coasts with greats like Kathleen Turner and Moisés Kaufman; with my work being featured at venues like Cannes Film Festival, the Hollywood Bowl, and Off-Broadway's Ars Nova--I now find myself based back in Manhattan pursuing both on-camera and live theater mediums.
In addition to my acting career, I am also a Director and Choreographer, having been trained by the Michael Bennett estate, and Broadway veteran & Tony-recipient Baayork Lee. I am now an authorized representative of the estate, traveling around the country remounting Bennett's original Tony-award winning Broadway production of A Chorus Line for audiences everywhere. This has led to a second life as a Director/Choreographer in the New York Theater industry, and as a guest teacher at colleges and universities training the next generation of theatre artists--and it has quickly become such a fulfilling and necessary part of my career.
In both my performing and directing work, I'm interested in storytelling that comes from voices we don't normally get to hear. I'm especially invested in Latiné, BIPOC, and Queer narratives; and how we can share them in ways that haven't been done before. What are the elements of these stories that don't normally have a light on them, or are still misunderstood? I hope to continue discovering the answers to these questions throughout my career... and who knows? Perhaps you and I can collaborate on those answers together?
