I moved to Prince Edward Island when I was seven, and spent my remaining childhood years there.After moving to PEI, I became very interested in the Arts. My 3rd grade music teacher, encouraged me to partake in our school play's and I never looked back since.I became involved with every school play, and started taking Music Theatre classes through the Confederation Centre of the Arts.

I then moved to Toronto, where I took an Acting for Media program and began to develop my network, continued working on more projects including short films/music videos as well as modelling jobs. I then graduated the Acting for Media program in 2024.Upon completing school, I finally finished the feature length script titled "The Art of Knowing You," which we developed into a short film completed as of January 2026.
