Hello! My name is Hero, after the Shakespearean character. So you can imagine that theatre making and performance have always been the map by which I navigate the world. Storytelling in all forms fills me with awe.

I am an actor, model, writer, and teacher currently pursuing my MFA in Acting from the University of California, San Diego. When I'm not in Cali, I split my time between the rolling hills of western Massachusetts and Brooklyn NY.

After getting my BA in theatre from Smith College, I attended LAMDA's classical acting semester program in London before heading heading to my first professional gig with Chester Theatre Company in the. I was blessed to return to Chester Theatre Company for the past three summers, while spending my winters performing in Hartford Stage's annual performance of A Christmas Carol.

And when I'm not acting? Rock-climbing, playing Catan with my baby brothers, playing ultimate frisbee, drawing, and hanging with my sweet Guinea pigs.
