About Me:

Hello, I’m so happy you’re here! Here’s a little bit about myself:

I grew up in Phillips, WI taking care of cows on my family’s dairy farm. My parents taught me to work hard, appreciate what you have, and stay humble. I take these values with me throughout my life, especially in my acting career.

Currently, I am pursuing my BFA Acting degree from Millikin University. I will be graduating in May of 2024. Go Big Blue!

My Acting Journey:

My passion for acting started at four-years-old when I saw our town’s community theatre production of Sleeping Beauty. I didn’t sit down for the entire performance—I stood gripping the back of the seat in front of me. The following spring, my mom took me to audition for Disney’s Beauty & The Beast, and I made my theatre debut as a townsperson. I’ve been hooked on the acting bug ever since.

I first knew I wanted to be a professional actor at age eleven. I watched the Behind the Scenes special for The Sound of Music Live! and saw the casting process for the Von Trapp children. I remember watching them sing “My Favorite Things” in the audition room in front of the casting table and thought to myself, “I could do that.”

Now, here I am many years later doing exactly that! (Although I haven’t sung “My Favorite Things” for an audition cut). Pursuing acting is an absolute dream come true, and I love everything about this industry. I can’t wait to see where it will take me!

Bonus Content:

I am a huge animal lover, and have enjoyed working with animals onstage and off! I have acted along side several dogs and even a piglet! My heart will always belong to cows, though. Say hello to this sweet baby, Lola!

I have been playing piano since age five. I have yet to play piano in a role, though (wink wink). If I’m not playing piano, you can find me reading novels. My dream is to have a home library someday. I also love playing literary characters (nudge nudge).
