She was always interested in performing arts in high school - taking part in school plays, dance classes and extra acting lessons. So after graduating, she got my Bachelors Degree in Marketing.

During her studies at NYFA, Hilary worked with numerous peer filmmakers, acted in 20-30 short films, studied the fundamentals of film acting (including improvisation, techniques and business of acting) with expert teachers, and has worked on her craft as an actor. Hilary graduated from her Masters in Acting For Film with a 4.0GPA, and has now entered the industry with years of extensive of hands-on education and training, a young Hilary's dream and about $3.

Some of Hilary's credits include "Bare with BCRA", "Words Never Said", "The Strange" and "Subtitles" (which is a short film she wrote, executively produced and starred in - in post production).
