How did you come to performing audiobooks?

In 2019 I left the commercial theatre industry. Just in time to get scooped up by Penguin RandomHouse Audio to be a part of their inaugural mentorship cohort. Kelly Gildea taught me everything I needed to get started. I’ll always be grateful to her.

Anything else you’d like a listener to know?

Authors pour their hearts and souls into writing their books. As a narrator entrusted with delivering their babies to your ears, I consider it my responsibility (and honor) to do the same. I approach every project with a fresh perspective, and try to bring something unique to each performance that fits each book. I love experimenting—AND—I love hearing from listeners about their experience of the audiobook. Constructive feedback is just as welcome as praise, because growing as an artist is part of the privilege of this work.
