“It was a pleasure to work with Elena on the audio production of my novel. Since the audiobook’s publication, I’ve heard nothing but praise for her narration. I think she made my book better than it was to begin with!”
— Jen Dupree, Author of "The Miraculous Flight of Owen Leach"

I fell into acting the way many people do - my mother pushed me into it. I had done the odd school or church play, but would not otherwise have considered myself built for stagecraft, what with my intense anxiety and abundant adolescent awkwardness. But when I was twelve years old, a nearby community theatre was producing Fiddler on the Roof and my mom convinced (i.e. forcefully encouraged) me to audition. Lo and behold, I was cast in the ensemble and promptly fell in love with all things theatrical.

And the rest is history!

I am a classically trained actor, voice actor, and audiobook narrator based in the Washington, DC area. I have an MFA in Acting from the Catholic University of America, and graduated Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Virginia with a degree in Drama and History.

I also work as a freelance grant writer and graphic designer. If you’re interested in seeing my work, feel free to contact me to request samples.
