my name's
what's yours?
I was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, where I developed a deep passion for music that spans both classical and musical theater. From Donizetti to Sondheim, I’ve had the opportunity to perform a variety of roles. Despite being born without a left ear and realizing I was tone-deaf at a young age, my determination led me to take voice and piano lessons, which laid the groundwork for my lifelong love of performance.
In 2017, I channeled my experiences into creating my own one-man cabaret, Everything’s Fine: A Bear in Search of His Honey. This heartfelt production explores the rollercoaster of my journey to find love, touching on the ups and downs, the good and the bad, and the tops and bottoms of my adventures. Through a blend of humor and storytelling, this show shares my personal experiences in a way that truly connects with the audience.
In addition to performing, I’m passionate about coaching the next generation of artists. I focus on audition techniques, acting through song, and adapting vocal approaches for different genres of music. When I’m not on stage or coaching, I like to joke that I’m in a serious polyamorous relationship with Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+.
