Welcome! Here's What's New!
When Covid 19 brought to a halt all live performances, I took the time to look inward and focus on exploring all parts of my creative self in deep and meaningful ways. Ever since, I have expanded my education and training, fully embraced my blossoming career as an Intimacy Professional, and found every acting opportunity I could find in our virtual world until theatre triumphantly returned. Now that the world has fully opened up, I am ready to take that journey into new horizons and I already have exciting developments ahead!
​
ACTING: I am delighted to announce I will be playing Prospero in the Tempest with Arachne Theatre Company June 17th-18th at Summit Rock.
​
INTIMACY DIRECTION: I have successfully completed my Level I and Level II Certification with IDC (Intimacy Directors and Coordinators.) I look forward to completing Level III later this year. Until then, I am dedicating myself to further training opportunities in Stage Combat, Movement work, taking seminars and workshops on working with Trans & Non-binary artists, trauma informed practices, anti-racism, anti-harassment, conflict resolution and all forms of sexuality expression and life styles with IDC and beyond to better serve my community and the stories I will help tell in the future.
​
I have had the privilege to serve on a number of projects in 2021 and into 2020 as Intimacy Director/Coordinator:
Live performance: Twelfth Night with Match:Lit theatre Company. Stage Jewels Production of "Under Woodside" in the park last summer and with Match:Lit's BARDCORE reading series for Cymbeline, King Lear, and Midsummer.
Film/Television/Webseries: Dead Enders and Orpheus was an A-Hole (Both can be found on Youtube)

​
PLAYWRITING: I am incredibly proud to announce that after nearly two years, I have completed my early development work of my Arthurian Enchantress Trilogy: "The Song of Avalon Saga" More updates coming soon.
​
Another piece, "She Who Died For Love," was featured last spring with Going Dark Theatrics in their production of "This Lonely Hell" inspired by Dante's Inferno.
