What do you do in the Vertical Industry?
Actress
How did you come across Vertical Dramas?
When I did my first vertical last fall I had been reached out to by the director (shoutout Sarang Sharma) who found me on Backstage. I knew nothing about them at the time-- late to the game I know. I auditioned and I ended up getting the part and since then I have absolutely loved being apart of them!
What is your favourite project you have worked on so far?
My first Vertical "Double Agent in Passion" will always be in my heart since it's my first one! Although my favorite I've done is one called "The Breakup Bet" which will be released on ReelShort soon! It was fun because I got to play a celebrity 😎
What is the craziest thing you have found yourself doing while working on a vertical?
Check out "Oops.. I Married My Enemy" when it comes out on Shorts App and you'll find out 🤣
Who is your unsung hero? Someone in the industry who should get more credit?
I absolutely loved working with Taylor Danehower who played my younger sister, she's incredibly kind and I wish her all the success
What do you wish more people knew about verticals?
Although we all love the steamy romance- there's also a lot of verticals centered around friendship and career oriented main characters and I think that's really special too
What developments would you like to see in the industry in the year ahead?
I'd love for there to be a musical vertical
What are you most proud of?
I started my professional career in musical theatre at 17. I was a strictly MT girl up until this time last year and I decided I really wanted to transition into film acting as well. In the past year I've done some great projects and I even booked a lead role in a pilot that's been shooting this year!
Which vertical actor would you like to play you in the biopic of your life?
Jake Sciacca!!! He's my best friend & he just shot his first vertical last month (look out world) and he knows me so well so he'd do a great job portraying me🤣
