Upcoming & Recent Projects
Intimacy Director
Purdue University
As part of my assistantship for my MFA, I have become the Intimacy Director for the Department of Theatre and Dance at Purdue University! This fall, we are working on Horse Girls by Jenny Rachel Weiner and The Snow by Finegan Kruckemeyer.
In addition, I'm beginning work as Assistant Director of Galinthias, by Bennett Ayres.
Summer and Fall 2025 Update!
This summer, I have the honor of returning to Southern Appalachian Repertory Theatre to play Laurey in Oklahoma, running May 23-June 8. Then, I will finish out my time in Asheville by playing Lysander in A Midsummer Night's Dream at Montford Park Players, North Carolina's longest running Shakespeare festival.
This fall, I will begin my MFA in Acting at Purdue University, after years of dreaming, planning, and working towards this goal. I'm so thrilled to be a part of this incredible program, prioritizing innovation and sustainability as I dive into all aspects of performance as well as teaching, devising, and choreographing more intimacy!
Summer in Asheville!
I spent summer 2024 in my beautiful home, Asheville, NC. I joined Southern Appalachian Repertory Theater as a company member in SART Spectrum in May and as Tzeitel in Fiddler on the Roof in June!
In July, I joined Asheville Musical Theatre to play Woman 1 in Songs for a New World!
