I grew up in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago and dreamed of being an actor. I was one of those highly energetic children always forcing my family to watch me put on puppet shows and other one-girl performances. I acted in a number of drama camp and school plays, and saw my dream coming true when I was accepted into the BFA Acting Program at Illinois Wesleyan University. During my time at IWU, I discovered the fascinating world of voice and dialects. Suddenly, a new dream began to take shape.

 
I now live in Chicago and work as a dialect/vocal coach and voiceover artist. I have coached over 40 theatrical productions, worked on multiple major television shows, and provided private coaching to countless actors. As a voiceover artist, I am represented by Big Mouth Talent and Meredith Model & Talent Agency.   


 
I am legally blind with limited vision in my left eye and no vision in my right eye. I never mind talking about my blindness. In fact, I am infamous for my blind jokes!
