About Me
I am a senior at NYU Tisch working toward my B.F.A in Dramatic Writing with a minor in producing. I have been involved in the performing arts since I was a child, working as a SAG-eligible actress. Since then, I have been seeking to understand every angle of the storytelling process. I currently work as a Producer with NYU's The American Classics Theatre while pursuing experience in every role on film and theatrical sets.
Portfolio
​Since childhood, storytelling has been the way I make sense of the world and connect with others. Growing up in a small, nomadic family, I lived across two continents, seven states, and attended nearly ten schools, carrying with me only memories of the people and places I left behind. Those experiences of constant movement, connection, and loss continue to shape my writing as I explore belonging, memory, and the stories we tell ourselves about the people who make us who we are.
