...what is it about her?

Jackie is Greek yogurt with honey and granola. The first movie she ever saw was The Sound of Music, and she's wanted to be an actor ever since.

Gemini Sun. Everything else is in Cancer.

​

She was born and raised in Massachusetts and received her BA in Theater Arts and Education from Brandeis University while working as a teaching artist and actor in Boston. She received various awards and nominations from loads of acronymed committees for her work. In an odd turn of events, she worked as a full-time cybersecurity administrator for 4 years before moving to NYC to receive her MFA in Acting from The New School. Class of 2020 (woof!), she has proudly called NYC home ever since.

​

She began solo traveling in 2018. In 2019, her life changed when she went to Greece to explore her heritage as an adult. She fell madly in love with the islands and set her life goal of seeing all inhabited 227 Greek islands. As of January 2024, she's only seen 62. So, she still has a lot of work to do.

​

Her travels and life experience have inspired her to dabble in writing. She wrote her first cabaret in 2019, her second in 2021, and in May 2024 she published her first book, The Truth About Greece That Summer, which is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and various other global retailers.

​

She is currently on a contract performing with Universal Studios in Osaka, Japan, while exploring as much of Southeast Asia as she can. She'll be returning to NYC January 2025.

​

Aside from theater and writing, she is a yoga instructor and an Access Bars Practitioner. Other passions include Greece, seeing all of the Greek islands, writing about Greece, talking about Greece, Greek food, Greek people...and also traveling to other places, lots of yoga, Christmas, cooking, researching the animal kingdom, long visits to the grocery store, sex, dancing the night away, exploring New York City, and free samples. She doesn't wear makeup. Her favorite duo is champagne and bacon, even though she quit drinking. One time she snuck onto a ferry for a romantic adventure. She loves talking to strangers. She was permanently banned from Bumble because she tried soliciting her one-woman cabaret and got reported by a whole bunch of dudes.

She regrets nothing.
