My Beautiful Friend CoCo left this world on 10/20/23. She was our pride and joy. A legend who’s face card never declined. She was my emotional support and I was hers. She helped me find my husband as he was the only guy who fought to connect with her and broke down all her defenses. The third to our pandemic bubble.My walking buddy and the small spoon to our cuddles. Farewell to my baby Lady Coconut aka Coco from Compton. RIP. #rip #dogsofinstagram #ladycoco

🎉🎈 Celebrating a century of greatness! 🎈🎉 This month marks a truly special milestone as we honor my incredible grandmother on her 100th birthday! ✨ Not only is she a beacon of light and love in our lives, but she’s also a remarkable part of this country’s rich history, especially during #BlackHistoryMonth. Born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, she blazed trails as a point guard on her basketball team at Southern University. 🏀 After earning her BS degree in Education, she fearlessly ventured to New York City, where she dedicated 40 years to shaping young minds as a teacher. 📚 Along the way, she pursued her passion for nutrition, earning her Master’s degree and building a beautiful family. To me, she’s not just a grandmother; she’s the epitome of strength, resilience, and grace—a true boss in every sense of the word. 💪👑 Grandma, your legacy inspires us every day, and we are beyond grateful for your wisdom, love, and unwavering support. Here’s to many more years of laughter, love, and unforgettable memories! 🥳❤️ Love you, Grandma! #100YearsYoung #Legacy #BossLady #CelebratingACentury #GrandmaTurns100 #BlackHistoryMonth #Trailblazer #SouthernUniversityAlumni #PointGuard #Education #NYCTeacher #MasterOfNutrition #FamilyFirst #BossLady #Centenarian #Legacy #Inspiration #Strength #Resilience #Grace #LoveYouGrandma #MilestoneBirthday #UnforgettableMoments

I’m based in Los Angeles, but I am from Long Island!

*Local hire in NY and Atlanta.

After graduating with a masters degree in Television, Radio, and Film, I spent several years exploring LA through working with Casting Director’s and Agents, Fit modeling driving for Postmates and writing scripts. My experiences have obviously led me to stand-up.

I have class and I take class!

Lesly Kahn studios

killians commercial workshop

Groundlings Improv

etc… (ask me about the rest!)

 

If you can’t love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?! Can I get an Amen?! -RuPaul

 

I write screenplays!

I love to create new worlds that feature women, people of color, and other overlooked or forgotten stories.

 

I love Stand-Up

Stand-Up is cheaper then therapy and I have expressed my feelings on stage at Marty’s, the Ice House, and the Comedy store. Im from the suburbs and for some reason the comedy comes out squeaky clean!

 

Theatre born, silver screen bound!

I am from N.Y. And my love of acting was born in the theatre. I have performed in Scotland, Italy, NY am LA! I have recently joined the screen actors union and i’m excited to be on the silver screen.
