Who Am I?

Are personal websites still a thing? Anyways, welcome!

I have been a creative my entire life, starting my career heading shows when I was only 13 years old. I’ve been lucky enough to perform in theaters around North America, like the Beacon in NYC and the Dolby Theater in LA.

I’ve always been fascinated by the intersection of entertainment and business. Most of the things I have done revolve around entertainment or creative arts business.

Previously I worked for two start-up ventures Execute Productions and Four Fifty Five Co. For both of these companies, I was involved with business development at seed and series A-stages.

I am a graduate of Ryerson University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts. Through my studies I have trained in vocals, acting (both theatre and on-camera), creative writing, voice, basic lighting design, set design, and production management. I have produced, choreographed, starred in over 20 shows, and have been involved in many other smaller projects.

Through dance, I was able to find opportunities in other entertainment fields, mainly within the games industry. Transitioning to help brands get involved within the gaming and millennial media space while using the skills I had learned as a traditional entertainer. I’ve had the privilege of taking many startups as well as larger non-endemic brands into the space with successful partnerships and marketing strategies.

After wearing multiple hats in the entertainment, media, and startup space I went to sunny California to complete my Masters of Science in Entrepreneurship and Innovation at the University of Southern California’s Marshall School of Business. There I continued to work on new tools for creators and guide founders in their startup decisions. I also dove deep into the world of new venture investment, studying as a Venture Fellow with the Venture Cooperative and Laconia Capital focusing on new innovation within legacy indsutries.

Entertainment and business credits include: FOX, ABC, CTV, David Foster Foundation, Break the Floor Productions, Dance Ontario, Execute Productions, Gamer Supps, and Four Fifty Five.
