- ABOUT ME -
As a young child I became enthralled with the idea of creating art to share with others. Following that dream I have been able to make a career out of creating stories, that audience's have seen and cherished.
Currently I work at Lyric Theatre of Oklahoma in their Education Department. I ensure that all productions are accomplished with the highest quality as well as helping young artists achieve their theatrical dreams.
I have been able to create a myriad of pieces including Directing, Stage Managing, Playwriting and Producing.
I am extremely excited for what the future holds for art and the new wave of creators waiting for their chance to share their stories.
I CREATE ART TO UPLIFT HIDDEN STORIES AND CHALLENGE AUDIENCE PERSPECTIVES. THEATRE HAS THE ABILITY TO SHOWCASE REAL WORLD, REAL PEOPLE ISSUES THAT CANNOT OTHERWISE BE TOLD. MY GOAL IS TO UTILIZE MY SKILLS TO SPREAD DIVERSE STORIES THAT WILL HELP SHAPE OUR FUTURE.
