I’m a Hawai’i-grown creative who moved across the country—and an ocean— to pursue my passion for telling stories. Since my first one-woman performance at five years old which I held for my supportive parents and several stuffed animals in the living room, I received a BFA in Drama at NYU Tisch School of the Arts. I have explored my craft at the Stella Adler Studio of Acting, the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London, and Stonestreet Film/TV Studios. I am currently based in NYC as a professional actor, model, dancer and singer. I am repped as a local hire in my hometown with Niche Models and Talent.

If you ever catch me off-stage, you’ll find me enjoying the great outdoors; I love to surf, hike, and ski amongst other, calmer activities like reading in a park. Caring for our land and environment is a value I’ve grown up with in the islands. Whenever I’m back home I cherish my time volunteering at the Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve and Kamilo Nui Farms in East Honolulu. 

I’ve been blessed to have worked with the artists I have met thus far in my journey and I’m excited for what the world has in store. We’re making something great!
