This December, I'll be performing in my second show with The Wilbury Theatre Group in my new home of Providence, RI. Follow the link for tickets and let me know if you do!

I started working part-time at The Croft School this past Spring and was immediately inspired by their school culture. The shared language based in anti-bias and anti-racist teaching, the genuine kindness and the sheer diversity in the staff and student body was something I had never experienced before in a school. Starting this school year, I'm a full-time employee! I'm an Associate Teacher in one of the Kindergarten classes along with creating/teaching after school classes centered around the performing arts. To interested families, I've begun teaching private voice and beginner piano lessons at my very own in-home studio! All the while, I'll be performing in the RI/MA area with my guitarist and spending some much treasured time with Pedro, family and friends. I'm very excited to receive health insurance and a 401k through my job while also getting paid to do work that feels good in my body and soul.

Thank you to the ever kind, Nile Hawver ( on insta) and his family for getting some genuine smiles out of me and catching them on camera.

Once has closed! I have such gratitude for this special welcome to Providence all thanks to The Wilbury Theatre Group and everyone else involved. This has possibly been one of the most joyful, collaborative, and down-to-earth theatre processes I've experienced to date. Thank you🪗

Also feel blessed to have these newfound accordion skills!! Catch me on an accordion bigger than myself for only 4 more weekends!
