I’m an Emerson Musical Theatre ’26 graduate and queer theatre artist from Southern California. I work as an actor, musician, model, hair and makeup designer, and youth dance and vocal teacher. I love telling meaningful
stories—classic, new, queer, and comedic. Offstage, I’m usually watching Tinkerbell, listening to Joni Mitchell, or eating ramen.
