A School of Visual Arts thesis film that tells the story of Katie, a young photographer dealing with a complicated health issue who struggles to deal with the inevitable outcome of her decision. I was cast as Katie's assistant, and had a wonderful time working with the cast and crew - headed by the wonderful writer-director, Crystal Loyola.
SOMETHING ELSE
I just wanted to learn more, soak up some knowledge and stretch those old audition muscles in yet another capacity. Word on the NYC street is that Jen Waldman teaches, drops knowledge and gives those muscles some serious workouts. I'm very excited to make progress.

THERAPY - ACTOR THERAPY
It's not what you may think.
Actor Therapy is a bunch of musical theatre classes, workshops, field trips, business coachings, and community all packed into 5 short weeks in NYC.
Who runs this challenging yet therapeutic experience you ask? The dynamic duo Lindsay Mendez and Ryan Scott Oliver with help of the amazing Rodney Bush and many more! You could say I'm a bit excited to start my first NYC class with this team.
I was selected for Manhattan Theatre Club's Paul A. Kaplan Theatre Management Program.
I'll be one of your front of house guides, and happy to help! My internship is at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre for the duration of the run of The Prince of Broadway, honoring Mr. Hal Prince, and the Royal Court Theatre's production of The Children, straight from London.
​
An exhilarating and illuminating way to start life in New York City! I'm very proud to work for such an amazing nonprofit theatre, with talented, passionate people. For those of you who'd like to know - the Manhattan Theatre Club is something really special.
