Artistic Statement
Many of my plays draw inspiration from mythology, folktales, and story archetypes to explore themes of death, loss, and sexuality through a comedic, modern lens. I am a proud member of the 2023-2024 New Jersey Play Lab Storyteller Studio cohort, where I am currently workshopping And What Grew There, a full-length coming-of-age tragicomedy about a group of friends illegally transporting their late friend’s ashes across state lines.
