all about…

that’s me !!

nice to

meet you

Hey, I’m Morgan—but my friends call me Morg! I grew up just minutes from the ocean in sunny San Diego, in a family where music wasn’t just a hobby: it was a way of life. Everyone in my family either sings or plays an instrument, so expression through music and performance has always felt like second nature to me.

That early love for storytelling led me to pursue a BFA in Musical Theatre from Rider University—I recently graduated in the spring of 2025 and will be making the move to the Big Apple in the fall.

I recently wrapped up playing the Baker’s Wife in Rider University’s winter production of Into the Woods, and now I’m beyond excited to take on my dream role as Carole King in Beautiful at Plays in the Park this summer. No matter where I go or what I do, I’m passionate about telling stories that resonate and stay with audiences long after a show ends.

A few bits and pieces that define me: traveling abroad, shooting film photography, blasting “dad rock” with the windows rolled down, playing piano, cats (the animal), and relaxing on the beach.

  • I love to travel and explore new places (no surprise there, I’m a Sagittarius through and through). One of my favorite travel memories is taking a cooking class in Florence, Italy with my mom—neither of us really knew what we were doing, but we had the best time learning to make fresh bruschetta, pasta, and tiramisu completely from scratch.

  • In five years, I see myself building a life in New York City, working in the arts industry—whether that’s performing on stage or contributing behind the scenes. I'm graduating with a minor in Arts and Entertainment Industry Management, so no matter where my path leads, I’m passionate about being part of meaningful storytelling and staying connected to the creative community.

  • I’m so glad you asked. Right out of the shower, I brush my hair and rake a curl cream through with my fingers. Then I take a gel and start to scrunch, forming natural curl clumps. I finish off with a mousse before scrunching it all with a cotton t-shirt, then diffuse with my blow dryer. I wait until my hair is crispy to the touch, and then I scrunch out the crunchiness with a bit of hair oil. Et voilà!
