I was born and raised in Westchester, NY. Theater had always been a very big passion of mine all throughout high school. Pursuing Stage Management at Purchase has provided me with numerous opportunities that have challenged and tested my skills, as well as allowed me to learn where I want to take my future career. Having the chance to work on opera, plays, dance and events has expanded my knowledge of the industry and excites me for what there is to come. Below you will find selected experience that I have worked on throughout college. For additional information, linked is my contact information, as well as my resume and full portfolio available for download.
