I was born and raised in Buffalo, NY – I am passionate about telling literally anyone who will listen about how I’m from Buffalo, NY (good food, great art, bad sports teams!).

At the age of 4, after witnessing a performance of Cats on tour, I told my mom that I wanted to “be Broadway.”

Fast forward… I moved to New York City to pursue an acting degree, dropped out of acting school, and found myself on the business side of live entertainment.

While at New York University’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study, I created a degree focused on Theatre Management & Entertainment Business and got to work for some of the best on Broadway.

I’m now the Business Development Manager for the leading live entertainment ad agency, AKA NYC, where I oversee new business opportunities and agency marketing efforts.

Outside of my job, I support arts institutions, including the Buffalo AKG Art Museum and Shea’s Performing Arts Center, through volunteering on a variety of committees.

When not talking about theatre, you can find me wandering around an art gallery, traveling, listening to the full Talking Heads discography, or rating restaurants on Beli.
