About
As an actor with many years of experience behind me, I love what I do and want others to see that love shine through in my work.
Whether on stage or screen, I strive to create memorable characters that people can relate to, helping to bring stories to life. Here you'll find updates on projects I'm working on, events I'm involved in, and other background information about what I do.
I believe in using the creative process as an avenue for storytelling and entertainment and hope to inspire others to join me in this pursuit. My mission is simple: to bring my passion for the performing arts to life, one performance at a time.
My year ended with a tsunami of activity from being invited to be a part of a wonderful, exciting new series by director, writer, and producer Candice Cain called "Heavy Hitters", to celebrating milestone birthdays, to medical emergencies, attending multiple screenings all over the country to celebrate the 40th anniversary of "The Last Starfighter" and "Night of the Comet", to playing the lead role of "Margaret Quinn" in a theater adaptation of Elin Hilderbrand's, "Winter Street", on Nantucket Island in November and December.
​
I got home from Nantucket and hit the road running with entertaining visitors for a week, a "Night of the Comet screening on Long Island, and preparing for Christmas. I'm finally seeing the light of day.
​
I'm excited for the prospects for 2025! There are a few projects that are whirling around. I can't wait to share them with you all here and on social media.
THE LATEST
Candice Cain has done it again! As one of the most prolific directors, writers, and producers she has created yet another brilliant series called "Heavy Hitters" about the nation's top baseball prospects that go through a pre-draft combine to prove they are the best, while dealing with drama off and on the field. I'm not in these photos but I do have a small role in the first season and will come back in the second season. Check out the official trailer on YouTube by pressing the camera icon button below.

WINTER STREET
I spent mid-November to mid-December on the beautiful island of Nantucket performing in a play based on Elin Hilderbrand's popular book, "Winter Street" at the Theatre Workshop of Nantucket. The book was adapted into a play and directed by Justin Cerne. I played the role of "Margaret Quinn", the matriarch of the Quinn family, a high profile CBS news anchor nicknamed, "The Most Famous Face in America", and the narrator for the audience. Taking on this role was challenging with a LOT of dialogue and stage presence but I was surrounded by the most wonderful cast mates and production team who had my back. I'm so grateful for them all. It was a fantastic experience and I look forward to more theater in the future!!

HUNTINGTON CINEMA ARTS CENTRE
In December I was invited to the Huntington Cinema Arts Centre on Long Island to sign autographs and a Q & A for a screening of "Night of the Comet". My friend Bob Heckman was instrumental in getting me there. Matt Roren hosted. If anyone lives in that area I highly recommend checking it out. They play wonderful independent films and have a great cafe.
​
Bob Heckman wrote, produced, directed the "Friday the 13th" fan film short, "Victim no More". In that I played Megan Jarvis and co-directed. Bob is now working on the sequel, "Victim No More Part II, Loose Ends"! At the screening of "NOTC" the play a little teaser clip of "Loose Ends". That's me on the screen as Megan. I was reunited with Glenn McBride Jr. who is set to play one of the characters in "Loose Ends", and Forrest Bennett who was part of the crew in "Victim No More". It was a fun night with a big turn out!
