The Honest Truth:

I love nothing more than to completely nerd out about immersive theater, interaction design, and audience experience. Give me the nitty gritty details to get in there with like-minded creatives and figure out the things that often fall through the cracks when we’re strapped for time and working on a budget: transitions- the way we communicate with an audience and move/guide them throughout an environment from entrance to exit; how to deliver material inclusively and with the capacity to adapt to meeting individuals and groups of people where they are and bringing them along for the ride; building trust and connection between audience and performer within a narrative world building experience, etc.- all the nuts and bolts that can really elevate and bring an experience to life. It’s my Jam!
My expertise and passion lies at the intersection of working with talent to craft their performance and working with makers to ensure that their vision engages their audience as intended and advocates for their overall audience experience from moment to moment.
A Bio:
I am an actor, director, and dancer with well over a decade of experience in immersive and site-specific theater- including original cast collaborations with Third Rail Projects, Then She Fell (Alice), The Grand Paradise (Aqua Twin Girl), and Ghost Light (Victorian Woman); and Alexander Wright's, The Great Gatsby Immersive Show (Off- Broadway, Resident Director).
All that connecting with people through immersive theater led me to becoming a certified professional coach that supports other creatives to live their best life and make the work they long to make.
My own choreographic work has been cultivated through commissions and residencies throughout NYC and abroad. I am also a proud graduate of the Terry Knickerbocker Studio Meisner Acting Conservatory Program.
When I’m not working you can find me curled up with my cat Lucius or wandering through Prospect Park in Brooklyn, NY.
