Summary

Being the fourth-generation of a family- owned fine antiques business founded over 100 years ago in Charleston, SC, I Inherited an outstanding work ethic and the same attention to detail that my father, grandfather and great-grandfather shared as they have successfully navigated the highs and lows of running a century-old establishment.


After graduating with honors from NYU in Vocal Performance, I had the pleasure of performing in numerous stage productions (Broadway and off-Broadway shows, regional theaters across the country) as well as on television (Law & Order, Godfather of Harlem, SNL).

With a background of performance, customer success, marketing, product management and sales, I especially thrive In collaborative environments, facing challenges head on, and utilizing my creativity to the best of my ability.

If I’m not hard at work making sure all my accounts are attended and cared for, you can find me asking for a mulligan on the golf course, every once in a while acting on a television show, or supporting and enjoying the incredible theatre New York has to offer!

Other topics I believe I'm an expert on include fantasy football and baseball, how the Atlanta Braves should construct their roster, collecting sports memorabilia and trading cards, where to find the best bagels in New York, and critiquing films like I'm the next Roger Ebert.
