FALL 2024 UPDATE

It has been a minute! And a busy minute indeed! I have been keeping up with commercial work as an actor, as well as singing gigs throughout the last few years. On top of this, about 2.5 years ago I began work as a copywriter for the video production company Waves Media. We specialize in high quality video services to both small and large businesses; my job is to write both the weekly blog and email, as well as the occasional script for our clients. In short, it has been rewarding to exercise another creative muscle that I have loved since childhood (that of writing). For my copywriter portfolio, click here.

I’m also currently in rehearsals for my 12th singing season with the New York Holiday Singers (yes, where DID that time go?!)! We are an NYC-based, jazz-inspired contemporary caroling group, covering holiday classics with a new twist. Want to hire us this holiday season? Click here to call and book.
