About

Photo by James Huang

I direct plays and musicals that unravel the past, speak to the present, and move us toward a more progressive future. Inspired by dramaturgy, I develop and produce new work, reimagine time-tested stories, and make ensemble-driven theater — sometimes from scratch.

My projects have been featured in regional theaters, academic institutions, fringe festivals, galleries, barns, basements, and city streets from Brooklyn and Philly to the Czech Republic. Highlights include the world premieres of Charles Mee's soot and spit and Rosie Kellett’s Mörker in New York City, five productions at Maine's historic Ogunquit Playhouse, and an immersive soundwalk for Coney Island Avenue in Brooklyn. In collaboration with student actors, I've directed productions at St. John's University in Queens, Fordham University in the Bronx, Brooklyn Acting Lab, and The College of New Jersey.

My approach as a director is shaped by hands-on experience in nearly every theatrical role. As an actor, I’ve starred in a national tour, premiered work in the Prague Fringe, and won a Barrymore Award. As a graphic designer and marketing specialist, I've partnered with Tony Award winners, Off-Broadway theaters, and other major cultural forces throughout the country. I hold a BFA in Directing from Philadelphia’s University of the Arts.
