Actor

I am passionate about truth-telling on stage and on screen. I love to sing, I love to fight. I love to make people laugh and cry. I want to be everything from a powerful superhero or a soft lover in a period drama.

Singer

I believe singing is a direct link to the heartstrings of myself, my character, and the audience. I feel the most connected and the most beautiful when I am singing. I have been taking voice lessons for 12 years and I love to share stories through song.

Director

A facilitator and a synthesizer to serve the story. I see my role as director as a clarifying and unifying partner in uplifting the voices of the designers and actors telling the story. My goal is to create a radically collaborative, equitable, and fun room to play in.
