MORE ABOUT ME
I am working daily to find ways to tell stories in these times--as a writer and director, finding ways to use the available mediums online to create a live experience which, while it is not live theatre, is also not film. The immediacy and intimacy are two of the primary qualities we love about the medium of theatre, and I am experimenting all the time as to how to make the online experience of a play both more immediate and more intimate.

WHAT I'M WORKING ON
Just finished projects with Theater Breaking Through Barriers and Cosmic Orchid, ongoing play development as both writer and director with the Playwright Directors Workshop of The Actors Studio and resident writer/philosopher for The Village Yontif. I'm also working on a podcast as researcher/director/songwriter, and several written-word projects.
