Welcome
Hailing from the town of Jupiter, Florida, I grew up in a sports family, playing a myriad of them until I discovered theatre in high school. It became my happy place and I eventually could not see myself satisfied in any other profession, so here I am!
On April 18th 2021 I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Florida State University with Bachelor’s Degrees in both Theatre and Political Science, and on August 2nd, 2021 I moved to Chicago to begin my career!
I love collaborating on new work, devising, immersive theatre, and political work. If it’s weird or plays with form, I’m into it. Found spaces? Yes please. Non-realism? Absolutely.
My current favorites are: Fairview by Jackie Sibblies Drury, Blasted by Sarah Kane, A Dybbuk by Tony Kushner, Bootycandy by Robert O’Hara, and Not I by Samuel Beckett
