I moved!
After always saying “Next year I’m moving to LA”, I finally packed all my 24 years in the Bay Area and moved to LA. I’m happily living in the heart of Hollywood, and I can’t wait to see where this new chapter takes me. Certainly, I’m never leaving LA. I just love it here!

After 2 years of intense training at The Meisner Technique Studio led by Jim Jarrett, I can finally say that I am a well-trained actress. On this day, I graduated from this program. Here is a picture of my class and teacher.

Hi there!
I’m very excited to share with you an interview I did for Theatre Bay Area's Featured Member for the month of August 2020!
In this interview I was asked why I chose acting, why and how I went from actor to actor/producer/director, my thoughts on the current social justice revolution, how my story and background as a BIPOC and immigrant woman have empowered me as a storyteller, and more!
Check it out here.
