WHAT I'M WORKING ON
I'm a playwright, theatre studies scholar and professor. As a playwright, I'm developing a new play I began during the Fornés Playwriting Workshop, led by Migdalia Cruz, in Chicago, that explores a woman's complicated relationship with her teenage niece, her alcoholic brother and her two black cats. I'm also developing a short musical with composer Daniel Padilla, that considers one woman's struggle to cook the perfect paella. As a scholar, I'm writing about the María Irene Fornés playwriting method, as well as delving into the work of contemporary female Latin American playwrights in Chile, Argentina and Brazil. As a professor, I continue teaching playwriting, screenwriting and theater studies at the University of Notre Dame, and am particularly interested in how I can incorporate anti-racist theatre  pedagogy and practice into my work as an educator and theater artist.
