As an industry veteran, I’ve appeared on multiple major network shows and in national campaigns for top brands. Whether it’s on-camera, theater, voiceover or print, I’ve proven to deliver—and that keeps casting directors and clients coming back.
When I show up on set, I come with technique, life experience and a background in writing and production that shape the 360-degree approach I take for every role. My career has spanned decades and I’m committed to constantly honing my craft—so whether it’s stage combat or improv—I’m ready for anything. I’ve got a deep passion for telling the stories of nuanced Black characters, and doing it well. I’m agency-represented and a proud, card-carrying member of SAG-AFTRA.

On-Camera
When it comes to on-camera work, I’ve earned roles on network episodics on NBC, HBO and AMC. I’ve appeared in national campaigns for Ford Motor Company, pharmaceutical powerhouse Humira and the American Heart Association, plus countless commercials and corporate industrial videos.

Theatre
In the theater space, I bring measured discipline and bold choices to the stage. I’m a Company Member at Collaboraction Theatre, and was honored with their Artist Award in 2018.
In 2018, I wrote and performed in my first theater production, Soul in Suburbia. This play is an autobiographical piece centered on the impact of discrimination, captured through the lens of a Black family in Chicagoland suburbia in the 80s. It was first mounted as a short, and then notably remounted as a full-length production in 2019.
Shortly after its premiere, I dove into the intense, groundbreaking co-devised show A Blue Island in the Red Sea, which grappled with Chicago's history of systemic racism. I played Mamie Till-Mobley and a number of other strong Black historical figures in this groundbreaking live experience.
Voiceover
For anything from corporate to dramatic reads, I’ve got you covered. Clients come to me for my gravitas, richness of voice and dynamic personality. Plus, I’ve got professional equipment and the industry-standard software, Source-Connect. My voiceover work spans commercials, narrations and audiobooks. Check out my sound.
My acting work combined with my extensive dance and movement experience makes me a print MVP. As a seasoned commercial print model, my portfolio includes brands like Groupon, Vein Clinics of America and Genomic Health, plus a variety of catalog work.
