I bring over a decade of experience as a professional, classically trained actor to creating authentic, immersive audiobook performances.

Born and raised in Kansas City, I grew up surrounded by incredible women. My Brazilian grandmother who came to this country on a Fulbright, my American grandmother who wrote greeting cards for Hallmark, and my mother who introduced me to my love of reading and fantasy (hello Harry Potter). Because of this, I’ve got a lot of love for strong female characters. Maybe they’re a little sassy, sarcastic, or even spiny, but ultimately, they’re gonna “tell ya like it is” - like any best friend would.

Professionally, I have worked on the stage alongside Oscar nominee Michael O’Keefe (in my Off-Broadway debut) and originated a role for award-winning playwright, Jeffrey Hatcher. My BFA in Acting is from the University of Minnesota/Guthrie Theater, where I focused in part on learning accents. Some of my favorites are British-RP, American-Southern, and French.

I love the journey of finding the intimacy of audiobooks (compared to the stage) and combine my empathetic spirit with my passion for storytelling & character creation to bring more audiobooks to life.
