“My goal is to learn, let go, and get out of my way to become my playwriting self.”

I write from what I know — a tapestry of daughter, sister, musician, mother, and survivor of physical trauma. These threads inspire stories of women confronting repressive boundaries, where gender is both lens and battleground. Rooted in a feminine aesthetic, my plays trace how societal systems, family expectations, capitalism, and institutional misogyny shape, constrain, and sometimes ignite identity.

I am drawn to storytelling that bends time, allowing memory and emotion to surface in fragments. In Broken Thread, sisters weave together past and present while preparing for a family portrait, confronting the grip of addiction. My work is fueled by language’s music, blending lyricism with epic sweep and quiet naturalism. In American Dream Hotel, Finny, a financier, seeks perfection at the edge of heaven and hell, guided by angels in a run-down New York hostel. In Complicity, a young actress risks everything to expose Hollywood’s misogyny. Across my work, two themes return like a refrain: women’s resilience and the courage it takes to break free.

Through my writing, I strive to invite others into the shadows — to illuminate what we fear and avoid, and reveal the beauty of what we might transform. My hope is that audiences leave feeling less alone, to recognize themselves in my characters, and to glimpse the possibility of a more tender, more empathetic world — one they are empowered to imagine for themselves.
