The work I crave is dynamic, messy, and exciting. In a practice rooted in community and integrity, theatre is a doorway to joy, truth, and healing. 

 

I lean on the Michael Chekhov Technique, Augusto Boal's Theatre of the Oppressed, Clowning and Latin American Mischief, to me, stories are a way to open hearts and spark conversation. Through embracing the sheer chaos, pain, and beauty of being human, I honor the ancestral technology of oral storytelling that allows us to connect.

 

Everything is political. I approach theatre in service: through intentional casting, centering the collective, and fostering reciprocity between artists, audiences, and communities. I believe in rigorous love, holding both tenderness and accountability, so that theatre becomes a space where empathy can grow, voices are heard, and dialogue bridges divides.

 

Every production asks the “why here, why now”: why this story matters in this time, for this community, and for the world we share. I aim to honor the essential act of lifting a story from the page—the ritual of coming together with living, breathing people, and the craft that surprises and reveals something deeper about ourselves in the audience.

​

My work as an artist and educator seeks to empower those telling the story, enrich the lives of the people it touches, and open space for reflection, connection, and action.
