Educator, Artist, Dreamer...

I have over 15 years of teaching and coaching experience with students ranging in age from pre-school to post-retirement.  I have over 20 years of singing, dancing and acting training, over a decade of arts leadership and administration experience, and nearly ten years of costume construction, theatre management, and design experience. Throughout my career I have dramaturged, directed, choreographed, and/or costume designed over twenty productions within the worlds of academia, community theatre, and professional theatre, and taught at one of the top MFA Theatre programs in the country.  I completed my Educational Doctorate (Ed.D.) in Educational Leadership at CSULB in May 2019 where I studied the value of the arts in a 21st century education!
