Philosophy
From growing up in rural Texas to my first job in the professional theatre world I have passionately loved the Dallas theatre community. Throughout my career, I’ve had the great fortune to work on some truly inspiring projects, while meeting many amazingly creative individuals along the way. I believe in collaboration to create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. I believe in working together to create something beautiful and meaningful. I have included pictures of pre-production, rehearsals, and production. I hope students can look at even the unfinished and see the beauty we are creating and will create. For more information about my experience, portfolio, or how we can collaborate on an upcoming project, get in touch today.
