She has been involved in projects like Ray Meets Helen, Heelbent, ER, Dolphin Island, and others. Although she has made a name for herself in the entertainment industry, she regards herself as a storyteller. She took to Instagram to explain why she gave herself this title.

She explained, “I started acting when I was 14. I went to Arts HS. I have a BFA in theatre. I have an MFA in acting. So naturally, when folks ask me what I do, I say, ‘I’m an actor.’ However, when you work sporadically, you don’t actually feel like an actor. When you can’t roll off a list of well-known shows or movies in which you’ve appeared, folks give you the side eye. I decided to step back to take a long hard look at my career, and renamed myself…a storyteller! What a difference a title makes, right?! Storyteller = freedom…to me. Free to tell my stories in any form I choose. Deep breath.”
