Storyteller

Crafting Narratives

Play2_7pm_10_5_2024-13.jpg

I have been telling stories my entire life. First through small characters in my bedroom that I would use to create entire worlds; then through using my neighbors 1980's video camera to create my own movies; and eventually through all types of theatrical mediums. Playwriting, choreography, spoken word, songwriting, directing and acting have all been important parts of how I've grown to tell the stories that I feel need to be told.

 

Storytelling is something that goes far beyond any artistic goals and is inherent in who we are as humans.

Contact me for interest in developing any of my scripts, creative consulting, directing, or producing opportunities.
