I grew up in the Dayton, Ohio area, more specifically the small town (legally by population, village) of Waynesville. Though it rarely ever makes the maps, it is known for being the "most haunted town in Ohio." Maybe that's part of the reason I've always had fascinations with the spiritual and supernatural, since I grew up in a place where every building on Main Street had its own ghost story. 

​

This fascination led to a love of the fantasy and horror genres of entertainment, and then eventually to an overall love for film. In middle school I discovered the film adaption of Sweeney Todd and my obsession with musicals was instantly kickstarted. My love of theatre continued throughout high school and college and I performed every chance I got, eventually earning my B.F.A. in Musical Theatre Performance with a Minor in Dance from Northern Kentucky University in 2022.

​

Since graduation, I've taken the time to explore some of my other passions while still pursuing a theatrical career. My heart has pulled me back to film and television, so I began pursing on camera work as well as work on the stage. I've also been exploring music more. I'm inspired by so many different genres; I was raised on a cocktail of classic country and 80s metal (the first song I ever knew all the words to was The Trooper by Iron Maiden) before developing my own unique taste, which is just about a little bit of everything. I hope to start drawing from this array of inspirations to create my own unique music as well.
