Bio

I’m a SAG-AFTRA voice actor, recording for people around the world via my professionally vetted Pittsburgh studio. Originally from MA, I graduated college in NY, and happily lived in Los Angeles for a couple of decades.

Since forever I’ve found joy in performing. I poured my heart into dance first, and grew into a regionally and nationally recognized and awarded tap dancer. Later, I focused my training and effort as a stage and small screen actor; that developed into featured, supporting and leading roles in shows like The Diary of Anne Frank, Dames at Sea, Much Ado About Nothing.

Over the years, I grew and developed range and skill. I learned that performance is more about connection than contrivance. Through preparation and a sprinkle of good luck, I was cast in a national radio commercial spot. Voice over was a surprise, and a thrill! I was hooked!

My voice is naturally unique and comes with my signature, built-in smile. My skills and experience range from quirky fun, to gentle vulnerability, and heartfelt genuine connection. My specialties include: Sweet Gals, Children, a Fairy Grandmother, a Realistic Pup and a Singing Chicken. (Not much call for singing chickens, but nice to know I always have her in my back pocket!)

Beyond the booth, I love life with my husband Michael and our two pups (Samwise and Ben), gardening, reading, spending time with family and friends, volunteering on behalf of organ donation (I’m a transplant recipient), running, and workouts with a local improv group.
