Who Am I?

I’m an actress, writer, director, producer, story consultant and public speaking coach.

With a multidisciplinary background in theatre, film and television, and over a decade of expertise in performance and stage presence, speech techniques, writing and directing, I bring a versatile and unique perspective to the world of consulting, communications and public speaking that focuses on the innate power of storytelling and connecting with audiences.  

Through my consulting and coaching work, I've helped clients garner placements in top entertainment industry competitions, festivals and awards, including qualifying for the Academy Awards consideration, and I’ve helped clients gain placement in top BFA theatre programs across the country (New York University, DePaul University, Boston University, Temple University, Actors Studio Drama School at PACE University).  I’ve also worked with Ivy League academic institutions (Brown University & Columbia University), the tech industry (NX Tech, Yoku AI, ThriveIEP, Pocket Gems, Wattpad), and marketing agency and consulting spaces (Giant Shoulders, CIC Massachusetts).  

I’m now using all my experience as a storyteller to consult with corporations, non-profit organizations and private clients to hone compelling narratives in their pitches, presentations, and public speaking engagements.  

I can’t wait to see what stories we craft together!
