Director, Writer, RPG GM, Teacher, Clown.

I’m a theatremaker, teaching artist, and creative producer from Brooklyn, and the founding Artistic Director of The Firebird Project, a multidisciplinary production & arts education company. I also serve as the Associate Artistic Director of Phoenix Theatre Ensemble and head their PlayCoop New Works Incubator, a home for new storytelling forms like ARG and RPG. As a teaching artist, I lead workshops in improv, playwriting, and RPG storytelling. As a homeschooled genderqueer first-gen immigrant, I seek to create work that explores nebulous identities, placelessness, and unconventional methods of meaning-making. My work is driven by a love of surprise and seeking moments of discovery, both for artists and audiences.
