About Me

I am an actor/director/theatre maker and teaching artist originally from North Carolina, now based in Washington, DC. I'm also a current student and '27 Classical Acting MFA candidate at Shakespeare Theatre Company Academy and George Washington University!

​​

I'm interested in projects that make the corner of the world they touch a little bit of a better place; productions that are accessible, that foster empathy, that educate and enlighten, that comfort and disturb. I am drawn to developing new works, classical pieces, gut punchers, and warm hugs. I aim to create highly collaborative ensembles and build rehearsal rooms that are caring, generous, and electric.

Spirits VI:
RIP Six Flags

It's my absolute pleasure to be associate producing and co-hosting our sixth annual Spirits! 

​

What is Spirits? 

Spirits is a community of artists, neighbors, and fans of the unsettling who gather annually to revel in the strange and supernatural. We invite performers to tell a ghost story through the medium of their choosing - past performances have included burlesque, puppets, clowns, fire dancing, opera, improv, and much more. The vibe is house party meets spectacle: Halloween edition.

Spirits VI: RIP Six Flags is happening Saturday, November 7th
