I am originally from Miami, Florida, and love the outdoors. I'm a big fan of the beach, and all things involving the ocean. I have a passion for the arts, and am in Los Angeles pursuing a creative career. I'm an actor and a writer, who loves improvisational theatre, comedy, and I would love to work with children's theatre some day. I love animals, and marine science. I have an extensive knowledge of sea animals, in particular. (Moray eels have 2 sets of jaws, look it up) I'm a big fan of creative writing, and have interests in poetry, short stories, and fiction. I'm very outgoing, and thrive off of working with people in creative ways. I'm very reliable, and always open to communication.
