I truly believe that theatre is magic. Theatre has the power not only to entertain, but to inform, inspire, and provide a pocket of light for audience members to exist in (even if only for a moment). My goal as an artist is to help build and share those magical moments of education, creativity, and enjoyment through unwavering positivity, dedication, and adoration of my craft.
