I have three primary passions in the arts: acting, writing, and teaching. I've tried my hand at many things over the years, and I keep returning to these three. I have a deep love for classical pieces that was only furthered after my time at Tennessee Shakespeare Company.  I have a ton of fun with these texts, but I also enjoy digging into a contemporary play. The method of discovering a character is my favorite part of the theatrical process. I like to think of character analysis as a game of Clue; I need to gather all the clues in the script before I decide why my character is behaving a certain way. I have a passion for comedic writing, specifically sketch comedy, which led me to take my first writing class at Second City this last summer.  Teaching is a newer love of mine. I didn't have a distinct teaching process until my apprenticeship at TSC. See my teaching experience below! I never know what to write at the top of these so if you have questions for me, please Contact me.
