I’m happy to be freelancing with Caitlyn Dowdy at Surface Models and Talent, for film & commercial work. Caitlyn works with Megan Magee, who directed me in String of Pearls, and I reached out to her after the show. I’m psyched to be there and excited for what new relationships bring!

I wrote a funny new play that will be at the Dramatist‘s Guild‘s Friday Night Footlights that I think you’d like. It’s about a biracial college student stuck athome with her grandparents in Oregon for the summer, and her journey to go literally anywhere else. You can find out more about the play here or read a sample on the New Play Exchange. I’d love it if you’re able to come.

I’m starring in Project Extract, a short film about a woman who escapes her abusive husband by being extracted from her home with the help of a crisis center.

The Playwright’s Loft is back!

We are thrilled to announce our second installment of an evening filled with brand new short plays written by some fantastic, burgeoning New York City playwrights!  Join us Sunday, November 5th for The Playwright’s Loft II!

I’m so excited that I’ve joined Theatre 68 as a company member (acting). My favorite part about Theatre 68 is Monday Night Gym. Every Monday night, members of 68 Cent Crew get together in the Drama Bookshop basement and do our thing; a Michael Chekhov class, movement work, meet with a casting director… anything to advance the craft. Then we present scenes. So once a month or more, I’ll get to work on and present a scene with my new crew. I LOVE it.

The Playwright’s Loft will feature my ten-minute play Pack Rats about a room full of junk and a giant rat. It’s kind of a  comedy.

I went to Los Angeles for two weeks studying at Act One, a screenwriting program in Hollywood. My favorite teachers were Dean Batali (That 70’s Show, Good Witch), Bill Marsilii (Deja Vu), and Sheryl Anderson (Charmed, Ties that Bind).

Wholly Broken premiered at Tribeca Screening Room. It was my first time seeing it up on the big screen all the way through. My favorite part was seeing scenes on screen that I hadn’t seen in filming. I loved it. What a lucky, blessed career.

“Not a Criminal”

I’m excited that I’ll be interning with New Dramatists Spring of 2017! Some of my favorite playwrights have come through New Dramatists, including Lynn Nottage, Lucas Hnath, and Sarah Ruhl.

When an estranged family member shows up at his family’s old plantation house, he brings more than just bad memories. A horror story for the stage.

Essie and her husband are finally pregnant, and Essie’s finally been cast in her first Broadway role. She learns the baby is seriously disabled on the same day that she learns that opening night is her due date. Essie just needs a moment to catch up.
