ABOUT ME 

Born, raised & educated in Pittsburgh PA, I received my BFA in Musical Theatre and Minor in Dance from Point Park University. After graduation, I moved to New York City where I continued to pursue work on-stage and on-screen.

 

I have appeared in several feature film and indie productions, best known for being a recurring guest comedian on the improv comedy series 'Impractical Jokers' (truTV, Comedy Central) and for my role as Alisa in ‘The Fault In Our Stars' (Directed by Josh Boone, Fox 2000 Pictures).

 

As a two-time cancer survivor, it is an honor to have been part of this film. 

​

In 2017, I caught the filmmaking bug and began co-writing & producing my web series 'F'd, another effing web series’, for which I received a BEST ACTRESS nomination from the Grove Film Festival. From there I began writing, directing and producing a series of short films and pilots. That indie journey eventually led to working in production professionally (full production resume available upon request). I am incredibly grateful for all of my experiences, in front of and behind the camera, as they have shaped me into the versatile creative I am today.

​

In 2020, I expanded my focus to arts and community advocacy. Wanting to make difference in my hometown, I began working and consulting with Pittsburgh-based nonprofits. I currently serve as the Director of Operations at the International Free Expression Project (IFEP). There I work with artists, activists, and innovators to elevate under represented voices and encourage creative free expression. 

 

When I’m not working, you’ll find me catching up with a friend over a cup of coffee (black) or a glass of wine (red). I love connecting with others and collaborating with fellow artists. I believe that being an artist is a gift and I hope to share it with as many people as possible.
