Born and raised in Los Angeles, I attended the Center for Early Education for elementary school, and then the Archer School after that. I graduated from Kalamazoo College in 2013 with a BA in Philosophy with a minor in Theatre. I play guitar (badly), know how to weld, am certified in First Aid/CPR, love to read, write, laugh, and talk about awesome things with smart people. My approach to interaction with children is to treat them with the same level of respect as I treat adults, speak to them as if they're real people, give them credit for good ideas, ask questions to help them think and wonder, and I always love learning a new joke. It turns out kids are incredibly smart and know awesome jokes. I love doing Yoga! I've worked in theatre for two years, with a focus on theatrical safety and Young Actor Guardianship (the lingo Read more in the biz' is 'child wrangler'). I had a work-related injury that required two shoulder surgeries, so I am currently free almost all the time as I try to make some money before I return to a career path. :)
