About Me

An actor and a writer, I come from a massive Jewish/Italian family of strong-willed and opinionated New Yorkers who taught me the importance of sharing my voice and fighting for what I believe in.

​

I’m a graduate from Cornish College of the Arts with my BFA in Theater (Original Works). Written when I was 19, my debut novel, “Spools of Red Twine” was published by Propertius Press, and I worked as a Broadway Theater Critic for an online publication.

 

My second novel, "Lamia Weeps" was published by Barnard Publishing in Wales, UK in July, 2025, and I had an incredible book signing in Manchester!​

​

I wrote and performed a solo show, "Annarella", about the life of Italian film star, Pier Angeli, for NY Theater Festival's Summerfest, and acted in the off-Broadway show, "Darkness of Light" directed by Michael Mailer.

​

I wrote, produced, and starred in the award-nominated short films "A Cause For Alarm" and "The Panic At Prospect Park" for the 48-Hour Film Project (2023, 2024).

​

Most recently, after a successful 5-show run at the Maker's Space in Brooklyn, my full-length play, "Sexy Sadie" was chosen for a residency at the historic, Off-Broadway theatre, The Player's Theatre in the West Village.

Sexy Sadie will be performing for 12 shows over 3 weeks May 6th-23rd in 2027!​

​

Along with producing, writing, and starring in a full-length play, "Call of the Void" in Seattle, I've also written multiple novels, screenplays and teleplays.

 

As an artist, I'm most interested in exploring the break-down of boundaries and questioning the moral code of society. I believe art is meant to pose more questions than answers, and that it's essential to broaden people's minds through empathy and connection.
