Recently, I appeared in the ensemble of Porchlight Music Theater's Sunset Boulevard, starring Hollis Resnik — a production that Chris Jones (★★★) hailed as "transfixing."
During my time at Northwestern, I was able to study voice in Michael Brown's and Kelli Morgan's studios. I also had the pleasure of working with David Bell, Amanda Denhert, and Stephen Schellhardt on acting for musical theatre.
