Welcome!

Born and raised in Silicon Valley, I always felt like a fish out of water as a kid who was more excited about musical theatre than high tech. These days, I’ve found ways to bridge these two worlds, both of which require creativity, collaboration, and innovative thinking.

I found that so many of the skills I learned from theatre world are broadly applicable soft skills: skills that help people communicate more effectively, build trust with collaborators, and create productive and collegial environments where creativity can thrive.

In a nutshell, I:

• Develop and facilitate engaging workshops that allow teams to practice and embody the skills that creativity, storytelling, collaboration, and communication require

• Teach theatre to people of all ages and backgrounds, from graduate acting students at NYU to UX engineers to Pre-K kiddos to partners at law firms (yes, really)

• Research ways that theatre practices can make people’s lives better, from building belonging at organizations to using theatre to improve public health
