I live and breathe stories.

I am a 25 year old writer, theatre executive, teaching artist, and podcast host living in Denver, CO. I am the co-founder, executive director, marketing director & resident playwright at 2¢ Lion Theatre Co., an LGBTQ+ theatre troupe based in Denver.

I have written and co-authored plays that have received professional production in Denver, Phoenix, and London. Clink, Clink won 3rd Place at the Cinempress Stage Play Contest (2023), and was an official selection at the New Media Film Festival (2023 Script Competition). Yesterday/Today won the Just Write! International Playwriting Contest (2023) and was awarded "Best of Fringe" by Bucharest Inside the Beltway (2022).

I have working relationships with Curious Theatre Company, Local Theater Company, and the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, among others. This fall, I will attend Raindance Film School in London, where I will pursue an MA in Screenwriting.

I am the creator, editor and host of two podcasts:
