A Bit About Me
At the young age of 3, I became a mascot on a Texas drill team. The moment I took the field and saw the audiences faces light up with Joy, I knew that's what I wanted to do for a living... Bring Joy!
Having first studied Improv in High School Theater in Dallas, I headed to Los Angeles ready to learn more. There I studied at the famed Groundling's school of Improv off Melrose Blvd. This new level of skill gained me employment as an actress at Disney studios doing improv voice work for TV. Lots of new jobs came my way in the form of National commercials, speaking TV and Film roles and more various VoiceOver work.
Moving back to Dallas to raise my family near my family, I opened IMPROV DALLAS in 2012 and have been helping actors gain speaking roles on screen, and companies grow together with this magical art and fun known as improvisation.
Improv Dallas is a gift I cherish as I get to give back and have a wonderful purpose teaching others while they laugh and grow through my training.
