As an actor, director, and educator, I am propelled by uplifting marginalized stories, of reinventing and challenging structures, and of using art to serve others. I have always been interested in best combining activism, science and art, using an interdisciplinary approach. This led me to double major in Theatre and Neuroscience at Northwestern University, and was the foundation for my Fulbright Arts grant in Brasil, where I studied Augusto Boal’s The Theatre of the Oppressed, and developed a curriculum model for best adapting it for neurodivergent individuals. I have presented my work at conferences such as the American Alliance for Theatre and Education annual conference, the Inclusive Theatre Festival, and the Winnifred Ward symposium. This past April, I will presented my Fulbright work at New York University. My work centers around including marginalized voices in both production, process, and product, and making sure my art is used to serve the communities it exists in.
