ABOUT ME

I am a scenic designer with experience in projections design, prop design, puppet design, and scenic construction. I am based in Seattle, WA, and am currently pursuing my MFA from the University of Washington. I received my BA in Theatre Arts from Weber State University in 2024. 

ARTISTIC PHILOSOPHY

As the kinds of theatrical stories, theatrical storytellers, and theatrical audiences change and evolve, space is opened to push the boundaries of what a theatre experience can be. It is my job as a scenic designer and theatre artist to be engaged in this evolution, and be curious about and considerate to the world around me.
 
“The theatre is relativity.”
Peter Brooke, The Empty Space
