She is best known for portraying Foxface in the film The Hunger Games, which was her first film audition ever. Though she is most known for her work in film, she has also performed with notable theater companies Reprise LA, Theaterworks, and Ensemble Studio Theater - in a show for which she became an Ovation Award nominee (2020).

In 2011, she recorded her first single "Peter Pan", and in 2012, her song "Catch Me If You Can" was released on YouTube.[4] Since then, her music has amassed more than a million views online, and she has released singles "What If," "Na Na Na (Na)" and "Glass Fire in a Jar." She also has created, directed and starred in multiple award-winning short films, both musical and dramatic, which can be found on her website.
