If you must know...

I'm a teacher by day, performer at night, and running my mouth always! At night, I shed my know-it-all teacher skin to become a know-it-all writer, performer, and circus freak. I have been known to frequent hallways, sidewalks, and cars singing showtunes. 

​

I am an artist and educator based in Los Angeles. I have a lot of hobbies but they all involve performing, creating, and making people laugh.  I have appeared on stage in ballet, opera, musical theatre, aerial silk/lyra, and improv comedy productions. Some of my favorite musical theatre roles include Madeleine True (Lippa’s Wild Party) and Nikki Harris (Curtains). Currently, most of my free time is dedicated to writing musicals, plays, and sketch shows.  In 2019, I helped write and perform in "Passing Class: Not Silent, Still Deadly" which was performed on the Second City Hollywood main stage. I also published "Traveling Home," a musical I am currently workshopping.

 

I performs frequently with Aeriform Arts, a local circus school and production company. Aeriform Arts is my home away from home and I have enjoyed performing in their yearly productions including "Dorothy and Alice" and "Cirque du Giselle." ​

​

In addition to performing, I has been teaching music for 13 years.  In 2010, I received Certification Level I in 2010 from the Music Together parent organization in Princeton, New Jersey for outstanding achievement in musical skills, parent education, and articulation of the Music Together philosophy. I received my Bachelors of Music in Music Education from Chapman University's Conservatory of Music. In 2019, I received my Masters in Elementary Education and Teaching Credential from National University. I currently teach 3rd grade, chorus, and rock ensemble. Last summer, I took on the role of director at Long Beach Playhouse’s Summer Youth Musical Theatre Conservatory, which I look forward to teaching every summer.

Don’t know how to pronounce my last name? Join the club. I’ll give you a hint though. The “T” is silent. It’s French.
