My Story...

I am an Oakland-born lighting designer and art-maker. For almost 10 years I've been living, working, and dreaming in Brooklyn. In 2022, I received my MFA in Design for Stage and Film from NYU Tisch.

​

I seek to create works that visually entice and intellectually stimulate. Works that analyze intersecting oppressions and delve into the complexities of race, poverty, sex, sexuality, and mental illness.

I spend my free time brainstorming evocative methods of storytelling and ways of challenging traditional notions of what a play can be (as well as watching anime and Bob's Burgers).

Cheers,
