About

Hey! I’m a Seattle-based improviser, actor, and disembodied voice. Comedic and dramatic, on stage and behind the mic.

I grew up on cartoons and video games: heroes, villains, characters who changed because of what they went through. Then I spent 15 years building games and immersive software, which taught me how interactive stories actually get made and how much they can mean to the people playing them. I have a voice credit in Sail Forth and train in voice over with Drew Hobson (Xbox, Nintendo, ArenaNet).

I came to performing late, through an improv class in 2023, and fell hard for it. Three years and roughly 130 stage appearances later, I perform regularly at Duos Open Mic at Unexpected Productions, with an indie team, and on the Cabaret Roulette mainstage show at Seattle Comedy Theater. Improv taught me to build a character in real time with other people; now I want to bring that to scripted work. To me, voice acting isn’t doing funny voices. It’s embodying someone fully enough that a player recognizes a piece of themselves in them. That’s the work I want, with people who care about it as much as I do.
