Cast as Anna in Patrick Marber’s Closer
Mark your calendars! Oct 2025 I will be back on stage in a production of Patrick Marber's Closer in the role of Anna.
Alice. Anna. Dan. Larry. Four strangers are caught between desire and doubt in a destructive dance of lies, lust, and betrayal.

Playing Yvonne (Yvan) in Art by Yasmina Reza
I am thrilled to take on the character of Yvan (changed to Yvonne) in a modern rendition of Art by Yasmina Reza at the ACUD Theater this December. Fellow actors include Lukas Garnjost-Eremia as Marc and Marian Böing as Serge.
A seemingly simple purchase of contemporary art - an all-white painting – ignites a debate amongst three close friends. What begins as a light-hearted discussion about art quickly descends into a riotous exploration of friendship.

Ten Years Short Film - Hey Camera… I’ve missed you.
After a long hiatus from acting, put into motion by our joint experience of quarantine, but kept in motion by a questionable career trajectory, an impromptu L.A visit led to filming with my dear friend and forever collaborator Lee Peterkin.
