Growing up as an only child in small-town, Mansfield, TX, I fell in love with television. I discovered acting through theatre in high school. This is also where I realized I could pursue acting by studying theatre to further grow as an actor. After high school, I joined the BFA Performance program at UT Arlington for my first year of college.  I acted in my first short film there which opened the door to more opportunities. Self-tape auditions opened the door wider, and I was able to audition for Netflix, Nickelodeon, and feature films. I transferred to Texas State University during the fall of 2019 to further pursue my film acting career through learning directing, screenwriting, film making, etc and to be closer to the capital of indie films, Austin, TX.  My first project, "Mom" was recently accepted into the 2020 Asians on Film Festival in Los Angeles, California. I can't wait to see what the future holds, and I have no fear because I can overcome my obstacles with humility, determination, hard work, perseverance, and most importantly, faith.
