About
I am a director from Alexandria, Virginia. I have my B.A. in Perfromance Theatre from High Point University in North Carolina and I have my M.F.A in Theatre Directing from East 15 Acting School in England. I served as Round House Theatre's Artistic Apprentice in Bethesda, MD from 2021-2022.
​
I have worked at amazing theatres like Round House Theatre, Shakespeare Theatre Company, Studio Theatre, Signature Theatre, Goodspeed Opera House, and McCarter Theatre.
​
I have had the privilege to learn from and work with amazing artists such as Simon Godwin (Artistic Director/Director), Ryan Rilette (Artistic Director/Director), Marshall Pailet (Director/Writer), Timothy Douglas (Director), and Jennifer Chang (Director).

​
I dream of working with inclusive and representative theater makers with the desire to tell stories about people whose voices have been silenced or marginalized. Telling thought-provoking stories through a realistic aesthetic using new, classical, and contemporary work.
​
I want to change an audience, whether it is subtly or extremely. To have an audience find resolution to something or find new questions to something else.
