ABOUT
Hey, I’m Lily, and I’m thrilled you’re here!
I chose a career in the arts, because I love people. Connecting with others is truly the greatest joy of my life. I am fascinated by the process of understanding and analyzing human behavior, so naturally, I got BAs in Psychology and Musical Theater (and graduated summa cum laude).
I recently returned to the US after spending eight months in Asia with The Sound of Music Global Tour, directed by Jack O'Brien and Matt Lenz. Whilst abroad, I climbed the Great Wall of China (it was very steep), ate more dumplings than you can imagine, and acquired a passion for exploring new places.
In the states, I’ve been lucky enough to perform at Olney Theatre Center, Imagination Stage, Round House Theatre, and soon, Signature Theatre. Now, I’m splitting my time between Washington, DC and NYC.
Thank you for visiting my site, and I hope we can meet in person soon!
