I’m an actor & writer based in Brooklyn, NY.

At the moment, I’m cutting a voice acting reel & surviving audition season.

If you’re a Casting Director, here’s my reel.*

Getting to know me

Origin Story

Born in Cleveland, OH, I have a thing for under-dogs and hyphenates.

I graduated from Kenyon College with a B.A. in Drama and Art History, and have lived multiple lives since then.

Among them:

  • Literary intern at Woolly Mammoth Theatre

  • Press assistant at The John F. Kennedy Center (RIP)

  • Programmer & manager at The DC Web Fest

  • Manufacturing consultant in Cleveland, OH

  • Rev ops, producer, & marketer at an SF startup

I’ve worked on creative projects throughout, and I want to work on yours.

If you’re an actor or writer, I made stuff for us.

It’s free.
