Welcome!  I'm glad you're here.
 
Here's the gist of who I am and what I do:
 
I'm a theatre artist and educator living and working in Boston, MA, with a focus on directing and producing.  I am currently the Community & Artistic Programs Manager at Lyric Stage Boston and also work freelance throughout the Greater Boston area.
 
I believe that theatre is the ultimate means through which society can reflect upon, challenge, and affirm our experiences.  My storytelling interests include:  The ways that humans craft, embody, and resist narratives; the transcendent power of human connection; and ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances.  I am particularly drawn to characters who could be described as underdogs and misfits, to content that celebrates the weird but wonderful, and to stories that linger in ambiguities rather than offering simple solutions. I believe in the necessity of brave spaces for open-hearted collaboration and the power of a killer playlist.  I am an Associate Member of SDC -- the Stage Directors and Choreographers Union.

As a freelance theatre artist, I have worked with a wide range of Boston and Providence-area theatre companies, including Plays In Place, Lyric Stage Company, Huntington Theatre Company, Wheelock Family Theatre, Also Known As Theatre, Open Theatre Project, Zeitgeist Stage Company, Praxis Stage, Fort Point Theatre Channel, Shotz Boston, Solas Nua, Bad Habit Productions, Epic Theatre Company, FirstWorks, and the Theater Barn.

As a teaching artist, I specialize in arts integration and devised work with students in middle and high school, as well as adults in professional development and community settings, using an arts-literacy model and community-based practices.  I've developed and taught programs for the American Repertory Theater, the Huntington, Actors' Shakespeare Project, Boston Shakespeare Project, Central Square Theater, Company One Theatre, and more.  I've also collaborated with the public art nonprofit Now + There and international travel agency Walks/City Experiences on opportunities for locals and visitors to Boston alike to connect via the power of storytelling.

Additionally, since 2016 I've served on the board of the Theatre Community Benevolent Fund, which provides financial support to Boston theatre artists in times of need.  

Let's tell some stories together!
