Oh you wanted to know more about me?
That's so sweet of you.
โ
In terms of what I value as an artist – I want to make pieces that deliberately leave room for the audience to be a part of creating the piece's meaning. I think theatre should invite. โ
As a neurodivergent and queer artist, I gravitate towards stories involving ambiguity, transformation, and fleeting connections.
Fundamentally theatre is meant to bring a bunch of people together in a room to experience and express together.
Sharing an experience creates a foundation on which we can connect and build community. Diversity of all kinds is what round out a community, but what bonds this diverse group is the act of recognizing where their commonalities lie.
This is why I am committed to work that creates bridges between people and which strengthens our compassion muscles.

Substack Blog
I have a substack. I do not post on there with any schedule.
I try to keep it fairly focused on creative insight/discovery. Some personal elements sneak in because I am a person after all.
โ
I don't edit it.
โ
I'm notorious for editing myself as a write, so on my substack I practice just typing and not getting in the way of myself.
