MORE ABOUT ME
Frontera@Hyde Park Theater, with Vicky Boone as Artistic Director, changed my life. Her productions of Phyllis Nagy's play WELDON RISING and Naomi Iizuka's POLAROID STORIES blew my mind and resuscitated my spirit - they were that combination of vision, collaboration, radical generosity, and intense dramaturgy. Also, the philosophy of the company was to say "yes" - to audiences, relationships, new work, challenging ideas, and profound insight. 

WHAT I'M WORKING ON
Finishing up a draft of my EST/Sloan commission, NUTSHELL; finishing a draft of my first book, a memoir about being a foster parent; heading into a rewrite on a dark rom-com about happiness; and starting a new play about paleontology and faith.

KEYWORDS
