I'm a Meisner-trained actor who spent years in Chicago and NYC doing improv, sketch, standup, and storytelling. Hosting is my favorite! My confident, welcoming energy pulls the audience in and my sense of humor keeps them engaged. I hosted pub trivia for years and had a dedicated following, my variety open mic in NYC was always packed, and kids and parents alike fell in love with Meg, the "Operations Manager" (host) of Odd Squad LIVE!, a nationally-touring musical based on the Emmy-winning PBS show. If Ellen DeGeneres and Tina Fey had a baby who was raised by The Notorious B.I.G., it would be me (please check out my YouTube channel if this does not make sense). |

My acting training began at Black Box Academy in Chicago and continues at Lesly Kahn & Co in LA. My most recent credit is I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change at The Wimberley Players, where I played everything from a dude who's mad about watching a sad movie to a recent divorcée to a widower in her 80s. I love to play characters who are a hot mess but have no idea, I have an extra special place in my heart for characters who pull you in with their humor and then break your heart with vulnerability. Give me a role with room for improvisation and I will love you for all of time. |
