Hey! Thanks for coming to my website. Sit down, can I get you anything to drink? Make yourself comfortable.

I was born in Albion, New York. If you don’t know where that is, it’s roughly half way between Rochester and Buffalo. On a clear day, you can see to Canada from the tower in Mt. Albion Cemetery.

I have a large immediate family: mom, dad, and four brothers. Yes, four: three older and one younger, I love them dearly. Like most younger siblings, I was dragged along to whatever activities my older siblings were doing, and one evening, I saw my brother James play Gollum in our middle school’s production of The Hobbit, and I thought, “I can do that,” and the rest is an iconic song from A Chorus Line. I have been a theatre artist in the DC area for over ten years, working not only as a performer but as a choreographer and director as well.

In my free time, I enjoy going to museums, getting lost in a good book (historical fiction is my favorite genre), baking, and taking long walks with podcasts (anywhere will do, not just beaches). And when none of that suits me, I really enjoy trolling my loved ones by talking to them in a dinosaur voice, making ridiculous jokes when they’re going through a tough time, and aggressively dancing (it’s more rhythmic flailing if I’m honest) at them to get their attention. I checked with my mom, and she said she still loves me in spite of all that, and she’s my toughest critic, so I assume that’s true for all of my loved ones.

Thanks for visiting! Come back anytime :)
