Exert from the article:


Do you think your parents have had a meaningful impact on you and your journey?

They taught me the value of hard work, respect for others and myself, kindness, and passion to pursue what you love regardless of the challenges. They taught by example and continue to do so.
 I’ve been in theater for as long as I can remember, writing, acting, and helping out the producing team to put on plays. I think a part of me always knew it was more than a hobby but it wasn’t until I decided to move to NYC that I started seeing my dream as my career.
Characters hold our hand, stories show us what we sometimes refuse to see, and above all, make us feel. Making people feel is the most rewarding aspect of what I do and what guides me through every project I take on.
