Available for Auditions!

I assist the nonprofit Ben's Lighthouse in their "Isle of Skoo" program where I play the role of The Host for a puppet show for children ages 4-8. The puppet show was created after the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy to help teach and inspire empathy, kindness, and emotional awareness in children. As The Host, I am the bridge between the puppets and the audience. I participate in the scripted puppet show as well as facilitate improvised conversations with the children about the topics that were covered.

InnerAct LLC: The year between my B.A. and M.F.A. I had the opportunity to be a Theater Teaching Artist for the LLC InnerAct, where I led engaging acting, movement, and music workshops tailored to the unique needs of each classroom. With older students (grades 5–12), I incorporated improv exercises and introduced foundational storytelling techniques to foster creativity, quick thinking, and self-confidence. For younger learners and students with special needs, I emphasized embodied learning; using music and movement to help them explore, express, and communicate their emotions in creative and meaningful ways.

Asolo Rep Education and Engagement: During my M.F.A. program, I continued my work as a teaching artist by collaborating with the Asolo Rep Education and Engagement team as part of their community outreach initiatives. In this role, I co-led free, public classes at a local art museum, designed to foster creativity, spark imagination, and introduce young people to the world of theater.
