About me
View profile
When I was two years old, I wasn’t just crying, I was studying emotion in the mirror. That’s when my parents knew: I was made for acting.

For years, theatre and musical performance were my world. I attended a special talent program that combined high school with a musical academy, and not long after graduating cum laude, I landed my first TV role in the series Topstars. That’s where I fell in love with the camera.

Creativity has always been at the heart of my life. I’m a storyteller. Even though I graduated cum laude with a Bachelor’s in Artificial Intelligence and a Master’s in Forensic Science, my work has always been in the creative field: acting, writing, presenting, creating. Everything I do comes down to one thing: telling a story.

I’m curious, driven, and a little bit quirky, which probably explains the socks. I always wear mismatched ones to celebrate my versatility. They remind me that I can, and should, give 100% to everything I love. 
Whether it’s a script, a scene, or a story waiting to be told... I’m here to bring it to life.
