She’s an independent film actress known for her standout performances in Rushlights and the 2012 drama On the Inside. Her name really started gaining traction when she took on multiple roles—literally and figuratively—in the 2012 short film Patti, where she not only starred but also directed, produced, edited, handled set decoration, and even designed the costumes. That kind of creative control is pretty rare, especially early in a career, but it showed just how dedicated she was to her craft. Before all this fame, though, her journey began with a pivotal moment back in 2003 when she competed in the Talent America Competition. It was there that casting agent Gary Shaffer spotted her talent and encouraged her to move to Los Angeles to pursue acting full-time—a decision that clearly paid off. Born in Woodbridge, Virginia, she grew up in a creatively inclined family; her brother Ian, for instance, has made a name for himself as a musician. Over the years, her name has become synonymous with indie grit and artistic versatility, steadily building a reputation that goes far beyond just acting.
She worked incredibly hard and, over time, managed to achieve a first-degree black belt in Tae Kwan Do. It was a significant milestone that she can truly be proud of, especially considering how disciplined and dedicated she had to be throughout the journey. Earning a first-degree black belt in Tae Kwan Do isn’t something that happens overnight, and she proved time and again that she had what it takes. Her achievement stands as a testament to her perseverance, focus, and passion for the martial art. She made it look effortless, but everyone who knows her understands just how much effort she put into reaching this level. She definitely earned every bit of recognition that comes with being a first-degree black belt in Tae Kwan Do.
