About

Olivia Pope meets Lucille Ball

I’m a Virginia gal living in Brooklyn. I love performing and writing comedy. I’ve produced 5 short films and performed at Caroline's, Gotham and Comedy Cellar. My work has aired on BET’s Lens on Talent and been selected for the Emerging Narrative Section of Independent Feature Project's (IFP) Film Week. I’m classically trained and have performed at Orlando Shakespeare Festival and Shakespeare Theatre Company. I also love the law and rules. When I’m not knee deep in comedy, I’m a Senior Trial Attorney, reminding you that unless you’re laughing at one of my jokes, you have the right to remain silent.
