Bio
I started doing theatre when I was 9 years old and haven't stopped yet! I started out doing props and quickly made my way up the ladder, when I was a sophomore in high school I designed my 1st show (scenery & lighting) and junior year I directed my first play (Auntie Mame.) Since then I have worked as a professional technician for IATSE, gotten my MFA in Scenic Artistry and Design from UCLA, directed almost 200 plays and musical in high school, jr college, and community theatre. My first love is theatre, but a very close second is teaching theatre!
