I was bitten by the acting bug at the age of 2. Growing up in Tulsa, Oklahoma, I was very lucky to be surrounded by a community theatre family that taught me the joy of theatre.  I continued my acting education at Southeastern Oklahoma State University and earned my bachelors in Acting/Directing and Theatre Management. Understanding the inner workings of both sides of the stage has been key to my success as a theatre artist.

​

I am currently represented by Lori Lins Talent Ltd. In May of 2024 I will be starting classes for my Masters of Education at Loyola. Between classes and auditions, I enjoy spending time wedding planning with my wonderful fiancee, Mike Maneechote. 

​

While in college, I was fortunate to be an original touring member of Hamlet: The Time is Out of Joint, which toured to high schools in 4 states, bringing Shakespeare to life in the classroom. I also spent three summers with the Oklahoma Shakespearean Festival. Some of my favorite roles include Adriana in Comedy of Errors, Nurse in Romeo and Juliet, Angel in The Best Whorehouse in Texas, and Lady Larkin in Once Upon A Mattress.

​

My 2013/2014 was spent on the road with the National Theatre for Children. It was an honor to introduce elementary school students to the magic of theatre while spreading information about saving natural resources and electrical safety.

​

Chicago became my home in the fall of 2014 and in February 2015, opened my first show in the Windy City. My favorite productions in Chicago(so far!) include Baby With The Bathwater, Clue: The Musical, Distracted, Game of Tiaras, Hound of the Baskervilles, and Emma's Child. Taking a turn behind the scenes, I  Assistant Stage Managed The (Curious Case of the) Watson Intelligence with Theater Wit. I enjoyed my two holiday seasons as part of the wardrobe crew for The Goodman’s productions of A Christmas Carol and Twist Your Dickens.
