Comedian Actress Writer Producer Puppeteer
About Me
My Beginnings
I'm a Black Indigenous comedian, actor, writer, producer, puppeteer. Born in Boston, MA. and raised between Boston and Mashpee (Indian Country), I've had the opportunity to live in and between three worlds: Being Black, Native and American. A lover of entertaining with a passion for Comedy. I love all things funny, and can still cry on demand with the best of them. I use comedy in all aspects of my art whether writing dramedies or my web-series Fk’d Up & Fabulous or the many scripts I've written. I believe that comedy helps your audience to open up and receive more. I also love to be behind the camera as much as in front creating content, and working with the various groups, organizations and companies I've been affiliated with.
My Favorite Work
I’m a lover of live theater and feeling that audience connection. Some of my favorite performances: Fires in the Mirror by Anna Deavere Smith at the Actors Studio Drama School. Sketch- To Karen, With Love (Brooklyn), Grown Ass Women (UCB NY Maude Team), Rock the Bells Comedy a Hip Hop Variety show I created and the Golden Gals an all BIPOC female comedy group. Laughter is one of my favorite sounds. I've also created a solo show From Fk’d Up to Fabulous where I'm able to combine laughter with some of my darkest real life truths. It's freeing to let it go with laughter.
My Life Today
I've had a great year! I'm currently back in Brooklyn with my two sons and our dog after spending five months in Chicago finishing out my SNL/Second City Scholarship and just finished an eight week run in the New York Times critic pick's The Nosebleed by Aya Ogawa at Lincoln Center. I've started Starlight Performing Arts a program that I plan to partner with schools, organizations and students looking for an outlet or to get into a program that will get them ready and provide resources for a career in the entertainment business.
