My Story

I am an actress and a writer who pretended to want a “real job” since the age of 14. But when I found myself relocating to Los Angeles in 2011, I finally gave myself permission to pursue my dreams of being a full time actor and writer. What’s happened since has been one amazing ride…

Narration

As an award-winning writer and actor who has been telling stories on screen and in my one-woman shows, I now bring my love of storytelling and colorful characters to life with audio book narration.

I’m the voice of the mama bear fiercely protecting her loved ones. The best friend gently talking you off the ledge – or nimbly getting you out of trouble. The last boisterous cheer on the way out the door at closing time. Take a listen to my samples and let me know if I can record something for you!
