I'm Elena, an actor, singer, writer, and activist based between New York City and Chicago. I got my degree from NYU Tisch, where I studied acting after transferring from Bard College, where I studied vocal performance for two years.

I love developing new work, political theater, and musical theater. I love action films, rom coms, and indie films. And I don’t want to pick just one, I want to do them all, and I will.

I have acted, sung, and written before I can remember. Now it’s all on purpose, and for the whole world to see. Get Ready.

Actor, Singer,Writer

My most recent show:

The Doctor in SPite of HImself

This past summer, I had the pleasure of studying abroad in Florence with NYU Tisch, practicing the art of Commedia Dell’Arte. We had the priviledge to use masks made by Donato Sartori. It was a fabulous 6-week program studying the physicality that makes these amazing masks come to life. I created the character “Nonna” pictured on the left. She was a deaf, mostly blind, grandma with a long-lost dream of becoming a famous singer, and instead was forced to care for her insane family.
