I was born in Chicago. I received my BFA in dance from the University of Illinois, Champaign. I've spent the last 35 years as a ballet instructor and assistant director of Hawaii State Ballet. I am now living in Asheville, NC.
I am elated to return to my first love, acting, as well as screenwriting. Triple Threat is my first producing project. It was one of three projects accepted into the prestigious Creative Lab Hawaii Web Series Immersive program. I financed the first four episodes myself with some help from an IndieGogo campaign and as the winner of the Roy W. Dean Fall 2018 Grant. Triple Threat is an episodic comedy web series featuring "mature" women in the leading roles. Four episodes may be viewed via the link below.
