About me

I am a recent graduate of Columbia University with my MFA in Acting. I have been babysitting for several years. Fun Fact: I am a certified babysitter and teacher in New Jersey for children in Kindergarten through 8th grade. I have taken Special Education courses and worked with children with a variety of needs. I was a camp counselor at Meadowbrook Country Day Camp in NJ for children in 1st and 2nd grade. Currently, I teach acting for ages 5 to 18 at Acting Out! and Applause. I teach cold reading, auditioning, acting for TV and film, and am a monologue coach for children auditioning for middle school to college roles.

I am an energetic person who love arts and crafts and playing outside with the kids. I love dogs, but am sensitive to some longer hair dogs. That would not prevent me from taking the job I just need to take an allergy pill beforehand. Same goes for me with cats. I am a very active person and athletic. I love taking the kids to the park or going for a walk or bike ride. I am comfortable navigating the city as I have been living here for many years, and am comfortable picking up the kids from school as needed.
