Madi is a Kentucky Fried Kid, raised by Texans, now based in New York City. Her heart feels stretched across all three states. Whenever she needs to rediscover herself she puts palm-to-soil on a bluegrass hillside, and whenever she needs to reconnect she flies to Houston to hug the family dog.

She studied at The Esper Studio acting conservatory in New York City, graduating in 2023. Endlessly curious about people, she is driven by the intention to allow individuals to see or be seen. She embraces the mess in characters, and believes that sometimes the most absurd or otherworldly moments feel the realest.

In addition to devouring scripts and characters, Madi reads books of all genres, writes, finds meditation in movement, and experiments with design. She nerds out for film, fashion, and college basketball. She can talk with strangers for hours, and holds the opinion that small talk and comments about the weather are not bad things.
