Born and raised in San Francisco, California (one of the best cities in the world) I was surrounded by creativity and open-mindedness.  Being the youngest of three children, I realized early that I had a knack for being a jokester and loved to entertain. The best feeling has always been from making someone laugh.  Throughout my childhood I expressed myself through dancing, "attempted" singing, drawing, musical instruments, sports and community theatre.  Out of all of my creative endeavors, I knew that I loved acting the most.  It gave me, and continues to give me, a feeling of accomplishment and a pure adrenaline rush that I cannot explain.

My parents were huge fans of cinema and television.  They were really great in that they never censored our viewing.  This exposed me to so many wonderful genres of film and television programming.  I fell in love with Epics, Comedy, Action, Suspense Thrillers and Horror films as well as the Prime Time Soap, Crime Dramas and, of course, the Classic Sitcom.  I began to view these as homework for my future career, tossing in Saturday morning cartoons and Soul Train, for good measure.

I auditioned and was accepted into the Theatre Program at San Francisco’s School of the Arts and I continued to do theatre and improve my craft throughout college.  I received my degree in Early Childhood Education.  I adore working with children and taught school for several years, implementing the arts as the core of my curriculum.  I believe love and creativity are the basis to life and wanted to help expose as many children to that as possible.  During this time I developed a great fondness for children's story telling and did it quite often in large group settings, on and off the clock.  I was very fortunate to have arts programs in school growing up and wanted to give a little of that back.  I felt at one point that my work was done teaching and decided to put the focus back on myself and the development of my art.

I took the plunge and moved to Los Angeles some moons ago for better opportunities in acting, comedy and voice overs.  I am also an awesome mistress of liquors or bartendress, if you'd like, all over town. And here I am….
