My Story
Most recently seen onstage in The Bengson's HUNDRED DAYS (La Jolla Playhouse/ US Tour), I am a corn-fed-Ohio-born Multi-Hyphenate Theatre Maker based out of New York City. As a Director, Actor, Musician, and Songwriter, I thrive off of creatively blending disciplines to lift up queer narratives- both in the development of new work, and in the queering of canon. I aim to craft wild, expansive, and curious theatre experiences that use the diversity of my training to redefine theatre-making through an interdisciplinary lens. From 2014-2017 I co-founded and ran The Queen City Queer Theatre Collective, which hosted monthly readings and development workshops of queered theatre free to the public. In addition to my theatre work, I am also a filmmaker and am currently the resident videographer/editor for Signature Theatre Off-Broadway. Instruments include: Guitar, Drum Set, Accordion, Piano, Saxophone. Let's make something together.
