I believe theatre should be a full-body experience—spectacle-driven, emotionally charged, and just a little bit extra. Whether it’s a high-kicking chorus line or a jaw-dropping moment of stillness, my mission is to create art that feels larger than life and gives audiences a chance to escape the real world (even if just for 90 minutes).
For over a decade, I’ve worked in just about every corner of the theatre industry—directing, choreographing, performing, producing, bartending, marketing, ushering, and more. I’ve directed and choreographed countless Theatre for Young Audiences productions with Broadway Kid Stars and high schools throughout Northeast Florida, always with a focus on joyful, high-energy, meaningful storytelling that inspires both the performers and the audience.
In New York City, Sweet Hospitality Group at Jujamcyn and Roundabout houses, Broadway Artist Alliance, and Broadway Kid Stars. In 2018, I launched The Musical Theatre Performance Academy to provide high-quality musical theatre training at a price that doesn’t make your eyes water—because great theatre education should be accessible to everyone.
And when it comes to immersive, interactive spectacle? I’ve spent years as the Operations Manager of the world-renowned Macy’s Santaland experience in Herald Square, overseeing one of the most beloved holiday theatrical events on the planet. Managing that production has given me a unique understanding of large-scale logistics, creative cohesion, and how to make magic feel real for thousands of people a day.
I’ve also performed regionally for the past seven years and served on the board at Orange Park Community Theatre, where I did everything from directing to ushering to running the box office—proving that no job is too small when it comes to creating something meaningful.
At the end of the day, I’m here to make bold, glitter-drenched, heart-forward theatre that brings people together and leaves them smiling, crying, or dancing in their seats. Preferably all three.
I incorporate Stage Write software into my rehearsal process to enhance efficiency and organization. This tool allows me to establish clear staging and scene transitions while effectively communicating them to the cast and crew. To ensure continuity throughout the production, I consistently share the slide deck with the show or dance captain and the stage manager, providing a reliable reference for maintaining the integrity of the performance.
I have been in many rehearsal spaces where the production staff is unprepared or struggling to remember their choreo/blocking. I ensure a quick process by providing instruction/demonstration videos of preproduction rehearsals to give to the cast in advance. That way we can enter the space with a solid idea of what to expect and edit/add spacing as needed. This then opens up more time for direction and creating space for the performers to explore their characters and enhance their story telling.
