Some of my favorite childhood memories involve hours spent in imaginative play—crafting, baking, and making up stories that I recorded on my first video camera. Dressing up as pirates, princesses, and aliens, my siblings and I developed our imaginations and paved the way for the collaboration and creative thinking that fuel the type of innovation important to colleges and businesses of all types today. I am a graduate of Oklahoma City University with a BFA in Acting. Through college, I ran my own business, doing photography around the city. I also worked as a party princess at children’s birthday parties and events. While in high school, I was a camp counselor for theater summer camps, working with kids ages 3-18. As a camp assistant, I helped the campers as they learned dances & lines, but an even bigger part was making sure each child was having fun, developing skills to Read more improve their self-confidence, and learning life skills that would help them outside of the theater environment. I also developed the summer film camp curriculum and directed the execution of the curriculum for Let’s Make a Movie Camp and Let’s Make a Music Video Camp, which was rewarding because I was able to see the growth in storytelling skills in my students, as well as their pride in mastering a new skill. Family friends whose children are interested in the arts have enlisted my help with audition prep for their children who are eager to do theater but must first face their anxiety in order to audition. I have the Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certification through the American Red Cross, and I have completed their online Advanced Child Care Training. I have a sister with a severe food allergy and asthma, so I have experience with appropriate safety and first aid interventions. I am fully vaccinated, including against Covid-19. I recently moved back to OKC from New York City. While in NYC I had the pleasure of nannying two of amazing kids for 2.5 years. In addition to my work as a nanny in NYC, I babysat my two younger sisters growing up, as well many neighbor children and children of family friends.
