Hello, hello!

My name is Kendall and I am an actor living in the Hudson Valley of New York, far from the Oklahoma land where I was born and raised. I grew up within a beautiful, blended family dynamic that consisted of my mother's committed work as a Nurse, my father's Mexican heritage and my Step-Mother's and half sibling's deeply rooted Cherokee Nation blood. I was either volunteering at the hospital with my mother, attending a large celebration consuming as many homemade tamales and tortillas as possible, or participating in one of the numerous pow-wows that happen year round. 

​

I arrived in New York's Penn Station in the wee hours of a morning in 2007 after taking a train from Oklahoma, only to have all my luggage lost. It seemed like an appropriate greeting to the newest actor in town. After 2 years completing an Acting Conservatory in Los Angeles, arriving in New York felt like my story was just getting started.

 

After 13 years as a NYC dweller, I landed in Dutchess County where I somehow manage to live a balanced life of creativity and community. When I'm not home enjoying my tiny pocket of the Universe, you'll find me working as a Massage Therapist,  volunteering weekly at The Catskill Animal Sanctuary, attending aerial silks classes with Hudson Valley Circus Arts, or outdoors hiking the many trails the region has to offer.
