Upon graduating High School, I apprenticed first at Barter Theatre in Abingdon, VA and later that year at Chicago City Ballet Company. I continued acting studies at American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York. After graduation, I toured nationally in CABARET. Moving to L.A. in 1992, I joined Rachel Rosenthal Company, and toured internationally for the next 8 years. In 1999, I performed in David RoussÂeve's LOVE SONGS at UCLA's Royce Hall, wrote, directed, choreographed and performed A THORN AT MY HEART at Highways, and conceived and performed AVION for the opening of the Festival of Performance at Ex-Teresa Festival in Mexico City.
