About me


I’m a member of The Forest of Arden, a group of interdisciplinary artists focused on creating innovative site-specific and immersive work. I was also a founding member of Ghostlit Repertory Theatre Company based in South Egremont, MA, where I collaborated with members of the Berkshire theatre community to stage premiere musical theatre works for local audiences.

I made my Broadway debut in the Tony-winning 2023 revival Parade as a Swing and Dance Captain, and recently returned from the First National Tour, which closed September 7th, 2025.

I regularly assist Tony-Award-winning director Michael Arden. In 2024, I was the Assistant Director of the Pre-Broadway World Premiere of The Queen of Versailles choreographed by Lauren Yalango Grant and Cree Grant, which I continued with through the Broadway run at the St. James in 2025, as well as for the acclaimed Broadway production of Maybe Happy Ending at the Belasco Theater in 2024. I continue to assist on various other new works in development, and am excited to jump into The Lost Boys this spring.

This fall, I adapted and directed a new adaption of J. Sheridan Le Fanu’s Victorian vampire novella Carmilla for a backyard in East Williamsburg. The outdoor production utilized FM radio technology to allow audiences to experience a fully-scored and pre-recorded sonic world as actors lip synced to their own text.

Other works in development include Jenny’s Doll Hospital, a queer new chamber musical about Victorian dolls by Kara Hadden & Sara Stebbins, and Red Giant, a new musical by Cathryn Wake in which the Roman Gods are personified as an all-girl actor-musician rock band.

I regularly lead drop-in training sessions in the Suzuki Method of Actor Training in NYC after having attended the Suzuki Company’s intensive in Togamura, Japan in 2018 and 2024. The method focuses on physical embodiment for actors and movers with particular respect to classical and epic texts.

Regionally, I’m proud to have worked at Barrington Stage Company, Williamstown Theatre Festival, Pittsfield Shakespeare in the Park, Theater Barn, Mixed Company, Berkshire Theatre Group, Shakespeare & Company, Madison Lyric Stage, and Ghostlit Repertory Theatre Company. I hold a BA in Theatre with Highest Honors from Williams College.

Choral direction at Berkshire Music School, Blaefield Children’s Chorus of Berkshire Lyric, and Taconic High School, where I also taught Theatre at the secondary level.

Training: Williams College. Suzuki Company of Toga, Attis Theatre, London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art, Shakespeare & Company, and SITI Company.
