She quickly and seamlessly transitioned from voice-over to on-camera roles, starring alongside Josh Radnor and Rosie Perez in the Jason Katims series “Rise” and in ABC’s production of “The Little Mermaid Live!” as Ariel. Additionally, Brett Haley directed her as the lead of his film “All Together Now” with Carol Burnett, Fred Armisen and Justina Machado. She can also be seen starring in Hulu’s queer teen romcom “Crush,” directed by Sammi Cohen, which was nominated for a GLAAD Media Award. Most recently, she starred in the 20th Century Studios film “Darby and the Dead,” now streaming on Hulu.
