About Me

Hello! Welcome! 

I am Iris, an early-career actor and playwright based out of New York City. As a dual-citizen with the United States and Canada, I work across North America.

​

Originally from Cambridge, Massachusetts, I trained at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, where I developed a passion for performing classical texts as well as brand new plays.

​

I am a frequent workshop actor with Clubbed Thumb, and a finalist of the Shaw Festival's Monologue Jam (Canada). Over the pandemic, I progressed into acting on screen in a variety of film and commercial projects. 

​

As a playwright, I am spending 2021-2023 as the Playwright Fellow at Central Square Theater (Cambridge), where I write investigative plays for adolescents. Additionally, I love to collaborate in community engagement settings, and work with textual adaptation.
