This Thanksgiving we said goodbye to my sweet grandmother. She lived 5 minutes down the road growing up and filled my childhood with magic — her dress up chest was the best, her scrambled eggs unmatched, and her Christmas presents rivaled Santa’s. She paid generously for weed pulling and could talk politics with me without getting mad, even tho we voted differently. She had a way of making everyone feel included while staying unapologetically herself. As a little girl, she sang and danced; as an adult she owned her own salon, a dress shop, and raised 6 kids. She lived long and loved hard. Her love, laughter, and inclusivity inspire me and my family. This year I am especially thankful for the incredible memories she gave me and the legacy of love she leaves behind! 🤍 #thankful #family

Emerging from the postpartum & 2 under 2 fog. I’d like to thank coffee and dry shampoo for making this possible.
After years of finding my center in diapers, sleepless nights, and endless love, stepping back on stage to tell my own story – not a character’s – was scary and exhilarating all at once. #Solocabaret #motherhoodandart
Still buzzing from last night’s Tony Awards watch party at Ballpark Village, celebrating @themuny’s Tony win for Best Regional Theatre! 🏆✨ From raising funds for tornado relief to spotlighting STL’s vibrant arts scene (and yes, the Muny Bring It On cast showed up 🥹📣), it was a night that brought all my worlds together. I love watching the Tonys & cheering on friends as they shine…and I’m endlessly inspired by the artists onstage and off who make it all happen. The sense of community in theatre has shaped so much of who I am, and it’s what drives me to help grow & celebrate the arts in St. Louis. CBS didn’t air every award, so I shared part of @realmikeisaacson and @kwofe ‘s beautiful acceptance speech…worth hearing. 💙 #TonyAwards #STLArts #TheMuny #BroadwayCommunity

Momming so hard rn that I don’t even know what day it is. 🙃 No makeup, barely any time for social media, and I know so many of you are here for my musical theatre past life. Truth is, I love that chapter and miss it sometimes, but it’s just not where I’m at rn. This chapter, it’s all about these messy, beautiful moments with my boys, and I wouldn’t trade them for the world. 💙 #momlife #grateful

I never quite know what to say when people ask me what I do. I usually fumble through something like: ‘Well, I’ve mostly been a mom these past 3 years… but I also run a nonprofit, teach, perform here and there, dabble in marketing and social media. I’m passionate about arts education, I’m writing a children’s book, and wrote a middle grade musical.’ But that’s far too long..so I just say “I’m a mom” (what would you say?). The truth is, I’ve been filling my creative cup in a hundred different (sometimes wacky, usually unbalanced) ways while raising my boys—and I’m really happy. Right now I’m building a cabaret, and my hope is that it brings people joy. Still learning, still recalibrating, still figuring out balance as I go. #motherhood #mombalance
After we left NYC & during the pandemic, I needed a creative project… so naturally, we bought a fixer upper. A few (hundred) late nights, some questionable DIY decisions, and way too many trips to Home Depot later—it’s finally home. And now, it’s where we welcomed our boys… which means the renovation chaos has officially been replaced by toddler chaos. #homereno #HomeRenovation #homedecor #hometour
