I’ve been acting since the age of five, writing since eight, and directing from an early age—beginning in middle school and continuing through high school. I started producing professionally in 2014, which gave me a full understanding of storytelling from development through performance.
My training includes Robert L. Douglas (Detroit), Schoolcraft College, John Glenn High School, Detroit Actors Society, and Urban Playwrights United. Alongside formal training, much of my growth came from hands-on creation—writing, directing, producing, and performing original work from a young age.
I starred as Max, the comedic relief, in my original stage productions MAKIN’ CHANGES and MY BEST FRIEND’S MAN, serving as Executive Producer, Director, and Writer on both projects. I also produced the stage production Stay In Your Place and have worked in television on KAM. These projects strengthened my instincts for tone, pacing, and character—especially in comedy-forward material.
After high school, I continued earning recognition for my work, including the Soaring Eagle Award and runner-up honors in the Two-Minute Play Competition. I’ve written articles for multiple publications and received writing and creative awards throughout elementary, middle, and high school for storytelling, early producing, and directing.
Comedy and improv are core strengths. I’m highly instinctual with timing, rhythm, and button moments, and I stay present and playful in the room while always supporting the actor’s choices. I understand when to push, when to pull back, and when to simply listen.
As a reader, I’m collaborative, respectful, and actor-first. I never overstep boundaries and always ask before offering feedback. My goal is to create a supportive, focused space where you can feel confident, free, and fully backed in your work.
