About me - current project:

I am a Los Angeles based writer/actress who optioned the rights to Ruth Galm's novel Into the Valley and adapted it into a feature screenplay. My Short Film/Proof of Concept script based on the same material was a quarter-finalist in WeScreenplay's Short's Contest 2021 and made The Short List, Barnstorm Fest 2021. I produced and filmed it on location in 2022 in the Sacramento Valley, and the completed film has already been accepted to Oscar-qualifying festivals. I have worked as a story analyst for companies including Paradigm and Alcon Entertainment, and as the assistant to Breakdown & U-571 Writer/Director Jonathan Mostow. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area, where I attended A.C.T. and later studied at British American Drama Academy’s Midsummer in Oxford program at Oxford University to supplement my training at the University of California, Davis, where I graduated with honors in Dramatic Art and highest honors in American Studies. In 2022 I appeared as a Recurring Guest Star (Lindsay) on HBO's Westworld, and this year I recurred as Belle Watts-Thompson on AppleTV+/Hello Sunshine's The Last Thing He Told Me. Additional acting credits include starring opposite Jean Smart as Beth in Awaken the Shadowman, Dawn in Gabriele Muccino's film Playing for Keeps, and Stat in the popular indie thriller Reboot. I am managed by Rothman Andrés Entertainment and represented theatrically by Stone Talent Agency (Los Angeles) and Cast Images (Northern California)
