Get to Know Me

What does being part of Everyman’s Resident Company mean to you?

Having an artistic home in the turbulant world of theatre is so important. Not only is it a joy to be in a company of talented and generous artists, but it allows for the job security of acting full time–something many brilliant actors never get the stability to do. Having a few shows a year guaranteed is life changing.

How has your time as a Resident Company Member influenced your artistic journey or career?

I feel like I have grown immensely during my time at Everyman. It is a place where an actor can take risks, and go outside their comfort zone. Having a safe and creative artistic home has let me cut my teeth in a way I have not been able to before. Tackling the classics like Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? while also being able to work on newer, more experimental plays like The Sound Inside has been a true blessing.

What connections do you have with Baltimore?

Everyman brought me to Baltimore. But I have fallen in love with many of the people and fabulous neighborhoods the city has to offer.
