Formative Years
Born and raised a midwest gal, Natalie grew up in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan. She knew at an early age she had music and theatre in the bones. While emulating her then idols (The Little Mermaid, Tiffany, Christine Daae) Natalie solidified these pursuits in each and every elementary school talent show. Natalie was fortunate to attend high school with a Creative and Performing Arts (CAPA) curriculum, while studying at Intelochen Arts Camp during the summers. There with the guidance and support of incredible faculty, she began her professional music, theatre and dance training by age 15. She would also go on to star in several shows with The Music Theatre of Michigan, a company bringing together Broadway performers and local talent. Natalie was soon after accepted into the prestigous Musical Theatre Department at the University of Michigan where she proudly earned her BFA. Upon graduating, she immediately made the big move to New York City.
Professional Life
Natalie made her NYC debut Off-Broadway at the prestigious City Center in The Pirates of Penzance. She has toured the US and Europe with the 25th Anniversary company of Evita, directed by the esteemed Harold Prince, and also with the song and dance revue Broadway Tonite!. Natalie works regularly at reputable regional theatre companies across the country including Sacramento Music Circus, Weston Playhouse in Vermont and Bard Summerscape Music Festival upstate NY. Favorite Music Circus credits include the fist-ever regional premier of Les Miserables, My Fair Lady done in the round and The Sound of Music as the prudent Sister Berthe.
Natalie performs as a concert vocalist with NY Originals Entertainment Co., world-wide aboard cruise ships and as a National Anthem soloist. Natalie has contributed vocals and her unique whistling skills on several soundtrack recordings, including one for PBS. Natalie recently performed in a workshop of the new musical, Josephine, with R&B star Deborah Cox in the title role. Natalie has been fortunate to work with theatre noteables including Joey McKneely, Tommy Tune, Harold Prince, Marcia Milgrom Dodge, Stafford Arima, Glenn Casale, Douglas Sills and Dawnn Lewis.
In addition, Natalie works as the stand-in model for Linda Evangelista during the L'Oreal campaign in NY. She can also be seen several times a year modeling the magnificent jewels at Sotheby's Auction House.
