  • I've kicked off 2025 writing this update fresh from my move to my new home in Florida: I've accepted the most magical, incredible role at Universal Studios Orlando's Epic Universe and will be based here for the forseeable future! I have been one of 9 lucky women to craft + debut an original Harry Potter character for parks: Cosme Acajor, wand stylist for 1920s wizarding Paris! This has been the opportunity of a LIFETIME with a company I've been manifesting working with since 2021; I still can't believe I get to do something THIS special and truly once-in-a-lifetime!

    In the meantime, I've been getting to know my new home here in Orlando, plugging away at the audition circuit here, and have quite a few exciting opportunities brewing for the upcoming New Year...stay tuned! ;)

    If 2024's biggest lessons for me were about staying grounded, patient, humble, and resting, 2025 is already hitting the ground running with new lessons in gratitude/joy now that I'm revitalized AND relocated!
