BFA Acting, Arcadia University, PA

I was trained in theatre as an undergrad, with a semester of studying film at the University of Melbourne. Upon graduating from university, I moved to Los Angeles to work in the film industry. There I also got modeling opportunities and continued auditioning and working on set wherever I could. After my higher education, I decided to keep learning about the arts as much as possible. I have had the privilege to study improv at The Groundlings School, Theatre at the Actor’s Studio, Shakespeare in comparison to the Baghavad Gita at Esalen Institute, and somatic movement under the guidance of the renowned artist, Florence Peake, among other informal teachings around the globe.

My artistic final form aims to be a beacon of play and a liberator of wonder for adults who need a reminder that life is more than products and profit.
