As an Interpreter: I was born and raised in the East Bay -- Fremont, California is where I call home. I am a proud CODA (Child of Deaf Adults), which is how my skills and passion for American Sign Language and Deaf culture continue to grow. During my 16-year professional career, my skills have been cultivated in a variety of settings - more than 12 years in the VRS field, with both Sorenson and Convo. I am willing to travel for interpreting work - so far, destinations include San Francisco, Los Angeles, Portland, Orlando, and New York City. I have had the privilege of working with BroadwaySF and Broadway San Jose for various National Tour performances, Broadway workshops produced by 42nd Parallel Productions in NYC, as well as with ESPN for their Emmy-nominated feature "Silent Night Lights". Currently, I work as the staff ASL interpreter at San Jose State University - my alma mater.
As an Actor: I started getting into performing in eighth grade, when I picked up a saxophone for my Junior High beginning band. Since then, my passion and love for music and singing and acting and dancing took off. I graduated from SJSU in 2008 with a Bachelor's Degree in Theatre Arts. While there, I got involved in the arts of Storytelling and Oral Interpretation, as well as various student films and stage productions. I've been cast in over 30 community-based productions since 2010, with many more to come! Feel free to click the links above for my resume and photo gallery!
