When I’m not baking gluten free and dairy free items, you can find me playing classical compositions on the piano, reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo books, working as princess for children’s events, or doing Yoga.
I am a recent graduate of The Manhattan School of Music and perform professionally in New York City and beyond. My performance work has taken me across the United States and I have had the opportunity to also sing for a private event in France. In addition to my performance and vocal coaching work at Columbia University, I am also pursuing my master of arts in music and music eduation at Columbia University. I incorporate my piano, music theory, and classical training to learn new music quickly and apply these skills when assisting in directing youth in theater and vocal training. I draw from my dance and yoga experience to fully and physically immerse into different characters ranging from the uptight comedy of Marian Paroo to the heartfelt integrity of Lily Craven to the comic pathos of Antonia in Man of la Mancha.
I grew up with three older sisters and a very large musical family just north of Boston, MA. Growing up I identified very much with the family experience of the Von Trapps of The Sound of Music, and dynamics among the sisters of Little Women.
Recent favorite roles include: Anne (A Little Night Music), Maria (The Sound of Music), Marian (The Music Man), Lily (The Secret Garden), GC (Dirty Legal Secrets: The Flowers a one woman play), Alpha (Dirty Legal Secrets), Antonia and u/s Aldonza (Man of La Mancha), Belle (Beauty and the Beast), Ariel (The Little Mermaid), Belinda (Noises Off), Miss Dorothy Brown (Thoroughly Modern Millie), Colette (La Cage aux Folles), Anna (Spring Awakening), Rapunzel (in a COVID Into the Woods Film).
I have recently worked on multiple readings and concerts including: Jestyn (Somerton Man), Mathilde (The Hills Are Alive) with Evan Pappas, The Mother (Paperboy) with Don Stephenson, and the MA reading of Marilyn Monroe (Mistresses). I performed with Handel and Haydn Society in Boston (2014-2017) and more recently with Essential Voices USA at Carnegie Hall in “The Best Christmas of All” with Norm Lewis, “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” feautring Ingrid Michaelson with Hannah Winkler and Allie Mos and special guests: Jason Mraz, Will Chase, Ian Axel and Chad King; “Broadway Blockbusters” featuring Nikki Renee Daniels, Jordan Donica, Matt Doyle, and Melissa Errico; “Under the Mistletoe” with Ashley Brown; and in “Stephen Schwartz’s 70th Birthday Celebration” at the Hudson Theater.
