Winner of New Mexico Enchantment Award's Best Director Award, 2024
Deeply informed by a practice rooted in new work development, I bring a collaborative, dramaturgically rigorous approach to every production.
Whimsy as Entry into Deeper Inquiry
My work begins with whimsy.
Not as decoration, but as a doorway — a way of lowering defenses so that deeper inquiry can move in. I believe audiences and actors alike arrive more fully when they're first invited to play.
A Gender Expansive Approach to Casting
I approach every production with a gender expansive lens, because the stories we tell are bigger than the binaries we've inherited. Casting that reflects this isn't a statement — it's just good dramaturgy.
Meet the Play Where It Is
And above all, I try to meet the play where it is. Not where I want it to be, not where it's been before — where it is, right now, with these people, in this room. That's the invitation. That's where the real work starts.
