Telling good stories and helping others do the same.
Telling good stories well and helping others do the same: That’s what gets me up in the morning.
I have 20 years’ experience as a collegiate prof, teaching and mentoring a whole lot of amazing students. I helped them give voice to their stories and to be fully present as they tell someone else’s.
Together we found more empathy for the people around us, and that’s fulfilling stuff.
Performances have featured great acting, dynamic live music, and compelling visual art
I love combining art forms together, so my performances often feature great acting, dynamic live music, and compelling visual art.
Collaborating with other artists brings out the creativity in everyone. It's true synergy: my idea + their idea = something greater than what any one person can dream up!
