Acting and Writing on Experience

My acting journey began when I was a child in upstate New York. The love of theater has been with me through college and my adult life. I act on stage, and  have also worked on small film and PSA projects over the years. I've had the honor of working with companies on both coasts and owned my own theatre for ten years in California. I'm a non union actor who has focused  on straight plays (comedy and drama), but have performed in musicals, as well.  I have worked with many professional level community theaters in New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts and, California. Most recently,  I worked with Sierra Repertory Theatre, a regional company in Sonora, CA.  In December 2019, I sold my theatre and moved to the mountains full time. 

So here I am...excited for new opportunities!

I opened Limelight Actors Theater in January 2011. Over the course of 45 plays, 5 musicals and 2 cabaret runs, the theater was honored with "Best Theater South County" and "Best Theater Gilroy" awards every year. In 2018 we were a Theatre Bay Area Awards Nominee (San Francisco) in three categories. Best Actress, Best Director and Best Production of "The Last 5 Years".  We were also a TBA Recommended Production for "The Velocity of Autumn" in 2019. (A show I directed and starred in). At the same time,  I was an Executive Director of an Art Center for ten years and have served on several boards in the Arts. During the years I owned my theater, I was a one man show wearing many hats. Artistic Director, Marketing Manager, Set Designer, House Manger, Director, Actor, Janitor and everything in between.
