“I started my acting training when I was 9 with Joey Paul in her classes, and have been training with her ever since!
She helped me perfect not only my comedy skills but also worked with me on my drama work which lead me to land my first TV role on “Criminal Minds”. From there I was able to put my comedy training in action as a series regular on “Henry Danger”. ”
