Director

If you like wonderful scripts, playful performance, and the idea of investigating greater openness in the portrayals of female characters, this play is for you. Give it a chance. This is really important theater. - Drama in the Hood Review of Mythfest
My two passions as a director are new works and ensemble generated or focused work. One of my proudest moment was when I was called an actor's director.  I'm also skilled in directing readings and facilitating post-play discussions that help playwrights receive valuable, non-directive feedback about their work.
