Blog: I Am a Vessel for Stories That Reflect My Ancestors and the Community That Raised Me
by Atlantic Theater Company - Feb 4, 2025

My time at Atlantic has given me the tools to construct work professionally while never letting go of the playfulness and care that came naturally.

Blog: It Wasn't Too Late
by Atlantic Theater Company - May 6, 2024

My experience at Atlantic Acting School was akin to gradually assembling a truly amazing puzzle. One of the initial pieces I discovered and valued the most was when I completed my application form.

Blog: When People Ask Me What My Job Is, I Say Without Hesitation: "I'm An Actor"
by Atlantic Theater Company - Apr 10, 2023

As a graduate of the Evening Conservatory in 2022, my time at Atlantic provided an ideal environment to hone my craft, consolidate my skills, and springboard into the professional world. Prior to enrolling at Atlantic, as an actor with more than a decade of experience and training in academic and community theater, I realized that grad school would not be a financially viable option for me at this stage (and age), so I was looking for a program that would fit into the constraints of life and still offer rigorous conservatory training.
