About Me

Five years ago, I decided to follow my life-long secret dream of singing and performing. Since that time, I have performed in some amazing roles in local musical theatre. Some of my more recent roles have included "Mama Peterson" in Bye Bye Birdie; "Mrs. Bumble" in OLIVER!; and "Eulalie" in The Music Man. I recently performed with other ANMTers in a cabaret performance at the MBar in Hollywood with Joshua Finkel, Director, and Jake Anthony, Musical Director. I performed original works by some of the writers at ANMT: "Marvella" by Chuck Pelletier and "Gotta Get Some(Liposuction Blues)" by Debra Gussin & Richard Fowkes.
I am currently a part of ANMT's Performer's Workshop under the direction of Joshua Finkel, MFA. I train with Alan Feinstein's Acting Studio and Mary McGregor and Jonathan Krueger for Voice. I currently attend Pierce College for Music/Piano.
Check out my music video with The Penny Kings at www.pennykingproductions.com -OR- at www.youtube.com Search: The Penny Kings. (I play Nurse Ratchett!)
I recently filmed a short film for director Rachel Zisser for Marshall Herskovitz/Ed Zwick's show QUARTERLIFE! Check it out at www.quarterlife.com Search: The Show and Click on "Halibut"! (I play the Mom!)
Soon, I can be heard on the soundtrack to "Saturday Night At Norm's coming soon! I LOVE performing and can't wait to do more! Most importantly, I am enjoying my journey!! It's not just about getting there but about the road traveled!
This is a commercial I recently did. It's currently airing on ESPN, FSN & Telefutura!
I created my own myspace layout using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!
