Theatre Production

My directing career began at age eleven when I gathered my neighbors to create a fan film of The Hunger Games. Since then, I have directed and assistant directed productions regionally in North Carolina and virtually with The Vagrancy, a company based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and Los Angeles, California. My work spans from classical texts to new works, always with a commitment to fostering warm & positive rehearsal spaces & focused storytelling. I love collaborating with dramaturges to enhance productions. While directing She Kills Monsters, I organized a one shot night with experienced Dungeon Masters for the cast to play in character to experience the mechanics & role-play of Dungeons and Dragons. 

​

As a music director, I bring my vocal pedagogy expertise into the rehearsal room, helping performers build vocal technique while staying true to the narrative demands of a score. ​

My work as an intimacy coordinator is grounded in both creative vision and rigorous, ethical practice. I developed an Intimacy Language & Choreography Guide that establishes a culture of consent from the very first rehearsal (based on Chelsea Pace's book Staging Sex & Theatrical Intimacy Education's "Best Practices" workshop.
