Acting, and having the honor to bring characters to life, is the most meaningful project I have ever worked on. I’m a proud survivor of brain cancer. Just two years ago, I couldn’t do anything on my own: I couldn’t speak, eat, walk, or even breathe without help.

Before my diagnosis, I had just begun building my professional acting career in film at TV. I planned my college experience around this passion, and even my closest friendships were rooted in it. But when I got sick, everything came crashing down.

Since then, every day I’ve been able has been spent rebuilding from the ground up. I’ve fought hard to reclaim my voice, literally and creatively. I’m auditioning again. I’m reconnecting with the industry I love and creating new momentum in my career.
