About
Welcome!
I am an actor, singer, songwriter and collaborator based in NYC. Originally from Cincinnati where I was surrounded by music. My love for the arts grew in the Queen City and I earned a B.M. from Northern Kentucky University. I followed my dreams of performing to the Big Apple and earned a M.M. from New York University.
When I’m not performing, you can find me needlepointing, reading fantasy novels, or painting pet portraits.
These are a few of my favorite things🎶:
-
“Ya like jazz?” I’m inspired by jazz music, specifically the exploration of vocal sound and timbre.
-
My nickname for her is ‘Beeb’. How did she get that nickname? Through a metamorphosis of names: ‘Weewoh’ became ‘Beeboh’ and ‘Beeboh’ became ‘Beeb’ for short.
-
A “Big Comfy” as my dad calls it. There’s something I love about a blanket hoodie that is ten sizes too large.
