My passion for theatre began in performance, and I have loved expanding my skills over the last 10 years.

I am trained in the following areas:

  • Viewpoints (SITI Company)

  • Shakespearean acting

  • Mask work

  • Red Nose

  • Unarmed Stage Combat

    • (certified by the Society of American Fight Directors)

  • Musical Theatre

    • Mezzo Soprano​

  • Dialects (Intermediate IPA)

    • Irish​

    • Contemporary British

    • New York

    • Chicago

In addition to my experience in scripted performance, I have found a true love for devising. Several of my past credits were devised works with an ensemble and I am always looking for opportunities to collaborate on devising projects.

Director and Educator

As an experienced performer and deviser, I bring to the table the perspective of a director who values professionalism, collaboration, and specificity.

​

I treasure sharing my love for theatre with young actors.

Empowering students to embrace the vulnerable, unique, loud, and truthful parts of themselves.

Whether it's an iconic ensemble dance number, a building ballad, or an intimate duet, taking the time to work through a piece at an actor's level is integral to my directing process.

"I hope I’ve taught you that a woman or

genderqueer person does not need to be mild, meek, or quiet.

That you can use the power of your voice to sing, to influence

change,to joke late at night in your cabin, or to scream for your team.

You’ve taught me that I don’t need to be the loudest in the room to feel loved. That the people that admire you, trust you, support you, and care about you will listen no matter how quiet your voice may go.

And that the strongest voices are often hiding in those

who are just waiting for someone to listen."

~ Written for the campers of Camp Wa-Klo at the end of summer 2023.
