"Theatre makes us less alone. It brings us together and it shares stories. Design is a powerful means of uniting audience, performer, narrative and atmosphere. 

I have an intellectual, discursive and collaborative approach to design based on thorough textual analysis, which stems from wide-reaching interests in art, history, literature and politics. I have a particular interest in the relationship between gender, race, disability, climate and queer politics and performance.

​

Now more than ever, theatre needs to keep pushing boundaries, providing platforms for oppressed voices, and creating environments where disparate groups of people come together to think and to feel. I want to be a part of making that happen."
