What’s my story?

• I was a selective mute for the first 8 years of my life. Acting and performing became powerful tools for me to explore my voice and identity. —By the time I was 10, I had printed out the entire Into the Woods script and performed scenes from it daily with my sibling.

• I hold a B.S. in Acting, but I quickly realized I wanted to do more than just perform. While I still take acting, voice, and improv classes from time to time—because I genuinely enjoy what performing does for me—my path has expanded.

• Patch Adams is one of my favorite movies, as it inspired me to pursue Drama Therapy, Clown School, and an M.A in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.

• I’ve always felt different, and I’m now learning more about my neurodivergence—a journey that’s been both empowering and inspiring. It is my hope is to inspire and empower others who also feel different, misunderstood, or alone.

• Fashion has also been a vital part of my self-expression. Clothes help me explore myself freely and fully—check out my Dressed to Express series to see how I bring that to life.

• I’ve worked with people of all ages in a variety of settings, using creative and play-based interventions.

• I do a lot of things, but the core remains the same: I help people become more comfortable celebrating their authenticity, making mistakes, and exploring life through play and human connection.
