I began my career in front of the camera and on stage – first as a professional ballet dancer and then as a model, now as a stage, commercial, and film actress.

I'm based in Hong Kong, and about 6 years ago I moved behind the camera and began slowly building a following amongst the visual arts community with many of my images appearing in the South China Morning Post. I was lucky to find a small studio space in Central and have been working out of there for about 4 years building a busy photography business. I've taken a step further by starting focusing mostly on portrait and headshot work, and still continue to work in commercial/product photography as well numerous artistic photo projects. Working with people is what I love and I've just been invited to speak to two groups on how to nail your headshot and create your own online personal brand.

I am so fortunate to continue working as an actor. Being an American actress based in Hong Kong who is fluent in Mandarin, I work consistently locally and internationally in film, commercial, and TV.

Most recent work includes local film "Love Stalk", mainland China film "Dear Enemy", international film "Four Assassins", Danish TV series "Borgen" HK episode.

I am happy that I can combine my own passion and experience of in-front of camera work and use it to direct clients by giving tips and guidence. I want to inspire everyone to feel comfortable in front of the camera, to capture unique moments and expressions, and to help people take the fear out of standing in front of the camera.
