Artistic Statement

Artistic Statement

I write plays at the intersection of morality and ambition--the tension that exists between wanting to be good and wanting to be the best. Like most artists, this is in no way informed by my own experiences or 3am thoughts. Inspired by: the Black Arts Movement's nerve; Maggie Nelson's honesty; Suzan-Lori Parks' structures; FUN HOME's self-reflection; Sarah Ruhl's diction; and Naomi Smalls' legs.
