Thank you for being here!
I'm Jillian, a lover of sunshine and nature and a theatre kid at heart. My first love was dancing, but singing and acting joined my life pretty quickly. I go to the University of Central Florida in Orlando, Florida, where I am a senior in the BFA Musical Theatre and Dance Minor programs! GO KNIGHTS!
I had the privilege to be a part of the 2024 Acting Intern Company at the New London Barn Playhouse this past summer! I met some of the most amazing people at the Barn and had such fulfilling artistic experiences. In one of our Rent productions, I went on for my understudy role Maureen, with an hour's notice. This was my first time going on as an understudy, and I couldn't have had a more exciting experience. Some of my other favorite theatre credits include: The Prom (Angie), Bright Star (Margo) at UCF, and Spongebob/Spamalot (Ensemble, Dance Captain) at Peach State.
I recently choreographed UCF's spring musical Sweeney Todd, where I was nominated for a Kennedy Center (KCACTF) Award! I am excited for future opportunities to not only perform but also collaborate on creative teams. I am even more pumped to move to New York City within the next year and start the grind!
