ABOUT
I grew up in the Philly suburbs with 2 dogs and 2 brothers, and ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to work in the entertainment industry. I first found my love of theater in 6th grade, running the light board for my middle school's musical, then performing on stage for the first time when I was 14 as the King in Cinderella. I went to Pennsbury High School in Bucks County, PA where I began to pursue theater: stage managing and acting in shows in school, then exploring the world of community theater. After acting in a regional production of The Laramie Project in the fall of my senior year of high school, I found that I loved theater more than anything else I had done, which led me to attend Temple University to further my education.
During my time at Temple, I found a passion for filmmaking and my voice as a creative for both stage and screen. I spent my time acting, directing, and writing plays and films as well as acting at regional theaters in the summers; some highlights include playing Antonio in Twelfth Night at the Hedgerow Theater and Ken in the world premiere of Tree of Life at the American Gothic Performing Arts Festival. I spent the fall of my senior year of undergrad engrossing myself in the entertainment industry in Los Angeles, taking acting classes and interning at the talent agency Kazarian, Measures, Ruskin, & Associates as well as the production company CALICO, where I worked primarily in documentary development and as the Research Assistant on the PBS series The Expressway with Dulé Hill. I interned at the Playwright's Theater of NY and December Films whilst honing my theatrical and filmmaking skills in my last semester of undergrad (including making a bird puppet show!), and in the spring of 2024 graduated from Temple University Summa Cum Laude with my Bachelor of Arts, double majoring in Theater (Acting Concentration) and Film & Media Arts with a minor in History.
As a writer and director, I'm interested in exploring the human condition (who isn't?), specifically how individuals find their own place in the universe. The universe is far too vast a place for any singlular individual to fully comprehend or understand, so exploring how individuals carve their own paths through the world and beyond fuels me. The idea of people needing to find purpose in their lives and coping with their unique imperfections inspires the stories I tell. I love both science fiction & fantasy: I look to the stars (and beyond) for inspiration, as the infinite nature of space and the limitless possibilities attributed to the idea of "the future" excite me more than anything else.

At the present moment, I'm working towards my Master of Arts in Acting at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts. I'm also currently developing a one-person play surrounding some of the many layers of contemporary American Judaism and writing a science fiction novel.

Above all else, I'm a storyteller, and always looking for new stories to tell and new ways to tell them.
I'm always looking for collaborators, so contact me and we can start working together !
