About Me

MY STORY

Born in Chihuahua, Mexico, and raised in Texas and Northern California, I always knew I belonged in NYC. My love for musical theatre started the moment my elementary school teacher mentioned Wicked and The Boy From Oz (which I assumed were the same show). From that day on, I was hooked—learning cast recordings like they were homework, singing in every community theatre production I could, and convincing my mom to drive me hours just to see more shows.

After studying Musical Theatre at CSU Chico, I booked my one-way ticket to NYC (thanks, Hairspray paycheck!). Since then, I’ve worked Off-Broadway, regionally, in film/TV, and—my biggest passion—developing new works. Some of my favorite credits include touring as Peter Pinkerton in Pinkalicious, making my NYC debut in Frankenstein, and playing roles like David in If/Then and Michael Wormwood in Matilda.

Beyond acting, I’m a Certified Personal Trainer, a painter, and a vintage home decor enthusiast (@designedbygil). I love to travel, write, and soak in every bit of magic this city has to offer. I truly believe in the power of storytelling and can’t wait to see what’s next.

Welcome!
