Hi, I’m Eliza

Acting, directing, singing, and anything musical theatre – let’s talk about it

Born and raised in Portland, OR, I have now traded my forests and streams for the concrete jungle of NYC. After completing my BFA in Theatre Performance from Chapman University, I spent a year dabbling in the Los Angeles theatre scene before packing my bags and heading to the East Coast.

I am passionate about exploring the beauty and grit that coexist within the artistic sphere – within life. The complexities and nuances that create the human experience and are within us all. You can find this in Ibsen and Chekhov and over a century later in Lonergan and Ruhl. The rehearsal room is a scrappy place where ideas are explored, word discussed, and fun is had. What a joy it is to create theatre.

If you bump into me on the streets of New York there is a good chance I am either on my way to a show (I am notorious for getting same day rush tickets) or picking up a latte from the million and one coffee shops in the city.

If you’d like to chat over an espresso in one of the aforementioned coffee shops – contact me. Would love to discuss!
