Colorado

Colorado is my second home. I graduated from Aspen High School, receiving both my high school & International Baccalaureate diplomas.
I have BA in Drama from Colorado College in Colorado Springs.
Along with lots of acting & singing, I developed my hobbies of cooking, baking, & sewing while in college.
I started my serious study of singing in Colorado at age 16, & I’ve been taking weekly voice lessons ever since. My voice lessons are the one constant in my life!
My first job was working as a teaching intern for Theatre Aspen School.
My first professional acting job was playing a Bird Girl in “Seussical” at Theatre Aspen.
My first opera role was performing in the ensemble of “Street Scene” with Opera Theatre of the Rockies.

Sonoma

A month into the covid-19 pandemic I escaped NYC & came to live near my family in Sonoma, California (about an hour north of San Francisco). I intended to visit for 2 months, & I ended up staying.
I fell in love with all the incredible locally grown food & flowers here, & my aunt has been teaching me all about gardening - a new hobby!
I’ve also loved living in a more rural area, where my neighbors include horses, goats, sheep, cows, donkeys, chickens, guinea fowl, peacocks, etc.
While living in Sonoma during the pandemic I’ve been able to continue with my career, acting in a web series, two commercials, & four short films.
I’ve also spent this time studying voiceover with Voice One in San Francisco, taking classes in commercials, animation, video games, & narration.

I was born & raised in San Francisco, California, USA.
I’m a 6th generation San Franciscan; my family has been here since the gold rush!
I’m named after my grandma Cynthia, who came to San Francisco to escape the bombing of London, England in World War II.
My heritage is mostly English & Irish, with some roots in Holland, France, etc.
I started studying acting, when I was 8 years old, at ACT’s Young Conservatory in San Francisco. And I've continued to take classes there throughout my life.
Recently, I've been studying voiceover with Voice One in San Francisco.

I lived in New York City for many years & studied with incredible acting & voice teachers including Jen Waldman, Candace Goetz, Steven Lutvak, Heidi Marshall, Maggie Reed, Mark Shanahan, & more.
While living in New York, I acted in 12 films, 6 plays, 5 musicals, 5 operas, a web series, a family sitcom pilot, & many concerts, readings, & cabarets.
My “day job” in New York was working background for films & TV shows. I worked background on over 65 different projects & it was a great way to learn how everything works on set.
I also performed with the Blue Hill Troupe in New York, a 98-year-old charity theatre company. Every year we work with a different NYC charity partner, & our charities receive all the proceeds from the two productions each year, a Gilbert & Sullivan opera & a musical.
