I’m Molly (she/her)! I’m a New York-based actor, originally from sunny San Diego, California. In 2025, I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Pace University with my BFA in Musical Theater.
Music has always been the most important, most fulfilling part of my life. Thanks to my mom’s musical background as a piano teacher and theater lover, Julie Andrews, Judy Garland & Andrea McCardle sang the soundtrack of my childhood. When I was three years old, I started intensive violin lessons (which I continued until I was sixteen), but I found my true calling when I was nine, performing in a production of The Sound of Music.
As a Queer, Disabled artist, I’m passionate about playing roles that align with my identities, and have developed a deep love for new works. In 2024, I understudied the role of “Artemis” in the world premiere musical, Through the Sunken Lands, at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Since then, I‘ve participated in various developmental workshops, including playing “Princess Lena” in The Other Side (working title) with music by Mark Sonnenblick/book by Keah Brown and Stacey Luftig, playing June in 504: the Musical, with music/lyrics by Mason McDowell and Abbie Goldberg, and I worked with Disney Theatricals, dancing in instructional choreography videos for a new youth theatre edition of a musical they are developing. Using my artistry to challenge society’s perception of disability is very important to me, however, l’m just as passionate about playing characters whose stories do not mention disability. One of my favorite examples of this was playing “Amalia Balash” in a Queer reimagining of She Loves Me at Pace University. Some of my other dream roles are “Maria” in The Sound of Music, “Amelie” in Amelie, and I would love to originate a brand new role someday!
No matter what path I end up on in this industry, I hope to bring joy and empathy to every space I work in, and to be loudly and proudly Queer and Disabled so that the next theater-loving, Queer/Disabled kid sees me and thinks, “Maybe I can do that too!”
