Hey there!

Though my performance journey first began with tap shoes and eight-counts across the stage at age 5, I didn’t catch the musical theater bug until I slipped on a pair of knee pads and crawled across the stage as Lord Farquaad in Shrek the Musical. Before that, I trained as a dancer, initially finding my voice and storytelling style through movement. I attended Las Vegas Academy of the Arts, where I studied performance and developed a much more serious love for musical theater.

​

Over the course of my collegiate training, I was fortunate to perform in shows like Pippin, and make my regional debut as Jeff in [title of show]. Having the opportunity to work in a professional environment reinforced my passion for storytelling. I am most inspired by stories that blend humor and vulnerability. With every role, I see myself as a creative vessel for other artist to tell their stories through. Everything I approach comes from a place of curiosity, discipline, and a genuine love for the process.

​

Aside from the theater, you can find me eating sushi, listening to a Trisha Paytas podcast episode, or educating my boyfriend on RuPaul’s Drag Race. Fun fact: I was in the audience for the season 14 drag race finale that was filmed in Vegas! Some of my biggest dream roles include the Emcee in Cabaret and Jack in Into the Woods.

 

Thanks for reading more about me!
