In 9th grade civics class, I was asked what three things I wanted to do in life. For me, it was easy. I wanted to be a journalist to hear people's stories, an interpreter to help people communicate across difference, and an artist to make the world more interesting.

For thirty years I've been working at the intersection of all three. As a professional theatre artist, facilitator, leadership coach, and creative consultant, I have helped leaders and organizations across industries discover what they need to bring their best.

My path has been anything but straight.

Navigating the swing between personal setbacks and professional success has taught me transformation is rarely comfortable, always possible, and most powerful when breakthroughs happen in community with others. I've come to trust curiosity, play, and healthy tension as the conditions that make it possible.

As storyteller, facilitator, and artist I hold deep appreciation for the singularity that sets individuals apart and the pluralism that draws us together. My practice encourages listening to receive rather than respond, inviting insight over exchange of information, and the belief that when we orchestrate our differences rather than silence them we can become truly exceptional.

Theatre is not just a methodology.

The things that matter most in life I learned in rehearsal. You don't always get the role you want. Criticism is a gift, not punishment. The individual is only as strong as the ensemble. Perspective matters.

My MFA teacher Archie hounded me to look at a prop considering every angle, every use, every possibility. Anne Bogart (Viewpoints) challenged the notion of singular dimension. Architecture. Shape. Tempo. Repetition. Our stories are so much more than a room with a rug and a brown couch.

My training is the backbone of Unscripted Space — theatre isn't just what I do. It is how I move through the world.
