What do you want the world to know about you?

I'm a theatre director and teacher. I'm currently a half-time assistant professor at North Central College as well as an adjunct at DePaul University. My favorite directing credits include RAYMONDO (The Cartographers), TRISTAN AND ISEULT (NCC), STUPID F***ING BIRD (DePaul), ANGELS IN AMERICA: PERESTROIKA (Boston University), WHO WALKED ALL NIGHT... (Rhino Fest), SALVE REGINA (Center on Halsted), WHO ROWED ACROSS OCEANS (Edinburgh Fringe Festival), and an original adaptation of SPRING AWAKENING (Fearless Theatre). I'm a graduate of Skidmore College and I hold an MFA in directing from Boston University.


What do you daydream about?

Stories I want to tell on stage, vacations I would like to take, dishes I would like to make.


What hobbies and interests do you geek out about?

TV, baking, knitting, and most recently taking care of my cat, Frodo.


What do you do in the Midwives?

As a board member, I see my main role is to be curious about what the organization is actually up to, and where it would like to go. My goal is to help The Midwives transition into a stable and sustainable, anti-racist non-profit.
