About Me:

Hello everyone. I have always known I was going to be an actor. In 1998, after doing many plays, I joined the Oxymoron'Z Comedy Improv Troupe, where I performed for 2 years. As an actor, I learned so much considering I never thought I would find myself an improv performer. During that time, I kept very busy as an actor. Louis Anthony Russo was instrumental in helping me as a performer at that time.

In 2001, after Louis' death, I decided to take a break and focus on my private life. When my daughter was about to start kindergarten, I knew I needed to do something. The acting bug bit but I pushed it away because I didn't know if I wanted to go back to acting. After a series of events and a lot of soul searching, I decided I had to go back to acting. In my heart and soul, I am an actor and I have to do this. I love it. My first job back was in the Pandora Festival in May. I was cast in three plays and it was crazy! It wasn't easy but I realized how much I loved acting, good and bad. This is what I was meant to do.

My future plans are to move to London to work in TV/film and theatre.
