About Me
Background
My life began in Washington, DC, but I was raised in Maryland, just outside the city. I am a lifelong learner who loves to travel, dance salsa, hike, read, hang out with my family, and host my podcast.
Middle Ground
I’m a director, actor, playwright, arts administrator, and teaching artist with 25 years of experience on and around the stage. My passion lies in synthesizing theatre, American history, and social justice to create meaningful experiences for myself and others. Throughout my career in Washington, DC and Buffalo, NY, I’ve remained dedicated to using the arts as a powerful tool for education, community building, and positive change.
Foreground
Today, I aim for my study in principles of Instructional Design to lead me to a career where I can successfully integrate arts education, core content, and distance learning to create unique learning experiences!

There is also a wide range of entrepreneurial and organizational career opportunities that can be pursued by learning instructional design principles.
