A born-and-raised Southern California girl, I've always had a passion for the arts. Today, I am an actor, singer, dancer, and intimacy coordinator - always looking for opportunities to weave my creative artistry together with my advocacy work. 

I took my first dance class at the Pasadena Victory Park Communtiy Center at 2 and a half - and that was it. I followed that passion to the L.A. County High School for the Arts (LACHSA), where I was a Music (Voice) Major with a concentration in Opera Performance and a Musical Theatre Dual Major. 

After LACHSA, I went to Northwestern University, where I studied Theatre, Gender & Sexuality Studies, and Performance & Activism. Through my honors thesis work, I was able to study survivor-centered storytelling, trauma-informed creative practice, and content descriptions. I also spent a summer leading my own research study on anti-racist pedagogy for artistic and educational spaces. Outside of the classroom, I was a devoted leader of the Sexual Health and Assault Peer Educators (SHAPE), providing survivor-support and sexual health, pleasure & violence prevention education around campus, as well as a music director of Thunk A Capella and an Accessibility / Inclusivity / Diversity Co-Director for Waa-Mu.

These days, when I'm not intimacy coordinating or performing, I work as a Training & Facilitation Specialist at Right To Be. I lead workshops on Bystander Intervention, Conflict De-Escalation, Resilience, Implicit Bias, and Preventing Sexual Harassment. And when I'm not working, you can finding me embroidering with beads, teaching myself the bass, or making fatayers.
