Artistic Statement

I make theatre to ask questions we're afraid to answer and tell stories we've been taught to forget.

I make theatre because stories change us. My work lives at the intersection of history, identity, and social justice - exploring how communities remember, resist, and reimagine themselves. Whether writing, directing, adapting, or translating, I seek visceral, generous storytelling that honors complexity and invites audiences into shared experience.

Collaboration is my compass. I believe the rehearsal room should be a space of curiosity, rigor, and joy where artists bring their full selves and take creative risks together. I'm drawn to bilingual worlds, heightened theatricality, and narratives that center voices too often pushed aside.

Let's build something that matters. Together.
