About

I'm a soon to be graduate of Anderson University where I major in Theatre, with a concentration in directing. I have a four-year-old son, Abel-Riot; who gave me the gumption to pursue my degree so that I may provide for him. I start grad school at Regent University in August 2016 where I will be working towards my M.A. in Theatre, and will be shooting for my PHD starting August 2017.

Goals and interests

Career goal

As much as I want to be a successful actress; I know that it is not a good choice while raising a child. So, my ultimate goal until he graduates is to become a theatre professor on the collegiate level. This way, I can help others reach their goals and dreams; and then can take mine out of the jar later on in life.

Graduate school interests

I will be attending Regent University starting August 2016, and will be starting my PHD August 2017.
