A New York native, where my love of entertaining began. While being the constant clown full of energy my jr. high school chorus teacher demanded I audition for the musical PIPPIN where I danced, sang and performed with animated joy and freedom. With dance being my passion, I auditioned for Lincoln High School for Performing Arts in Yonkers NY. The dance program is where I learned discipline and increased my appreciation for performing live.
Always an avid dancer I went on to dance professionally in choreographed routines for music videos, including LL's "Around the Way Girl", TLC's "Sleigh Ride", Buju Banton's "Girl You Make My Day" as well as MTV’s "The Grind". I went on as choreographer for renowned Hip-Hop artists DMX and Rob Base. Later dancing for many of NYC's under ground house music acts.
A knee injury led me back to what initially brought me to the stage, acting. After an unsuccessful audition for a part in a major blockbuster movie I realized I needed the astringent training for acting, as I did for dancing. With a heightened respect for acting I sought out the WARD STUDIO. Steeped in Meisner method, this is where I gained a strong foundation to give me the confidence to audition and perform confidently.
Last seen off Broadway in Obsession, One Family, Whipped and many commercials. View me in the upcoming Westchester Film Festival’s audience choice award winner Damon.
In my new beloved home of Los Angeles, you will see more of me soon. Here is where I will keep you posted on all future works.
