Musical Comedy: the greatest words in the human language!
I love that my job is to let an audience escape their lives for a couple of hours: to make people laugh and forget their troubles. I love casting and figuring out the game of where to best put people. I also love working towards a more equitable industry and world. I am a Theatre Nerd at heart and it thrills me to be able to teach the next generation and inspire hearts and minds to create, play, and think outside the box.
Want to make magic?
Take a chance on me.
