| Bio | I’m a Brooklyn-based theater artist and filmmaker from Palm Desert California. I received my MFA in Acting from the Actors Studio Drama School and my undergraduate training at Yale, where I majored in Theater Studies and English with a concentration in Playwriting under the advisory of Donald Margulies. I’ve worked as an acting intern at Marin Shakespeare Company as well as in the literary department at Manhattan Theatre Club and the artistic department at the New Repertory Theater in Boston. I’ve produced and appeared in several independent film projects currently in post-production. I love to write personal essays, scripts, and collaborate with New York-based theater companies to devise new work. |
