Originally from Kansas, Mary-Elizabeth began performing with the local youth theatre company at the age of 5 after watching her brother on stage. Not one to be left out, she decided that if her brother could do it, then so could she! Mary-Elizabeth started her dance training at the age of 4 and eventually found that singing and dancing at the same time was much more satisfying! She continued her dance training at a prestigious dance studio in the Kansas City area and was blessed to participate in ballet intensives at the Walnut Hill School and with Boston Ballet, as well as many masterclasses around the country.
Mary-Elizabeth moved to New York City after graduating from high school so that she could continue her training at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy. Since receiving her degree, she has had the privilege of touring the continental U.S. You may have seen her ponytail bopping around the country on the "Footloose!" National Tour, or you may have met her as Oscar the Grouch or Zoe on the tour of "Sesame Street Live!".
Mary-Elizabeth is currently based out of New York, but continues to pursue her passion both locally and regionally.
