Hey there!
I’m an actress turned writer, raised in an experimental, racially diverse community near Chicago. I moved to LA & joined the Sunday Co. at The Groundling’s Improv Theater, where I trained under Jim Rash (Academy Award winner, The Descendants). I've been on lots of TV series, but most notably, I starred as Yolanda Hamilton on The Young & The Restless. Currently, I've adapted NK Jemisin's short stories into an Audible Original podcast titled "Amorph" and created a Webby Award-winning podcast called ALL THINGS UNDONE #1 on Apple Fiction charts now on Audible Originals.
