I tell character-driven stories from the margins. My own experience has given me insight into many different worlds: I am a bisexual, non-binary transgender person. In January 2016, my fiancé died suddenly of a heart attack; following this, I went to inpatient rehab for drug and alcohol recovery, and from there lived in a halfway house for six months. My work centers around grief, class, and queerness.

Through my varied experiences, I have met incredible people and heard many stories, some funny, some heartbreaking. My work reflects all the different worlds I see within any given city. In my daily life in Austin, TX, I move between 12-step meetings, graduate school, the theater community, prisons, and homeless spaces in the course of living my life and doing my work.

My artmaking is an ethical practice, the best way I know to continually open my mind and the minds of others to the varieties and depths of the human experience. I am happiest when I connect with others, and this connection is the heart of my work. I measure the success of my work in how much I connected with others and learned about experiences outside my own. My professional past work and future aspirations are evaluated in relationship to this goal.
