HEY  Y'ALL!

 

I was born and raised in Wichita, Kansas, and from the time I first danced around the living room in my dress-up heels, I always knew I wanted to perform! I grew up dancing competitively, and once I saw one of our dance moms play Ursula in The Little Mermaid at Music Theatre Wichita, I told my mom, “I want to do THAT!”

 

I went on to continue my dance training, and while performing throughout my childhood, I developed my love, passion, and drive for musical theatre. I firmly believe that theatre can make a difference with connection and storytelling, and my goal is to do exactly that. I’m grateful to be able to do what I love and complete my time at Penn State. WE ARE !!

​

Some of my favorite experiences have been developing new musicals. A few of my favorite new musicals to be a part of are True Crime Frankenstein (Matt Cox & Eli Bolin), Centralia (Adam Chanler-Berat & Julian Hornik), and The Morris and Essex Line (Joshua Salzman & Ryan Cunnningham). Some other credits include Tess/Dance Captain in Crazy For You and Prudencia/U.S. Bernarda in Bernarda Alba at Penn State, and Ensemble in 42nd Street at Music Theatre Wichita.​

And if you ever hear anyone call me Pickle, yes, that’s my nickname! Originating from my sassy toddler-self being told by my grandpa that I can be "sweet or sour" :)
