With over a decade of experience in choreography and directing, I have been fortunate to work on a wide variety of productions, showcasing my passion for storytelling and my commitment to fostering artistic growth in performers.
At OFC Creations, I choreographed productions such as High School Musical, Into the Woods, Anything Goes, Peter Pan, and Rent, while directing In The Heights, The Jungle Book, and Matilda. These large-scale shows allowed me to hone my ability to manage complex schedules, coordinate diverse casts, and adapt choreography and direction to the unique needs of each production. I pride myself on maintaining a high level of organization while ensuring that every production has a creative and fresh perspective.
During my time at Spotlight Theatre Arts, I worked with recreational students of all ages in summer camp productions that were put together, often in just one week. This fast-paced environment sharpened my time management skills and ability to create efficient, high-quality performances in a short period. I’ve always enjoyed helping young actors of all ages and abilities develop confidence and artistry.
At Class Act Performing Arts Studio, I worked with hundreds of students, including those in their professional training program. I directed and choreographed productions like Matilda and The Little Mermaid and choreographed Carousel. This experience gave me the opportunity to mentor aspiring professionals, helping them refine their technique and guiding them toward artistic excellence. I take pride in my ability to adapt to the individual needs of each performer, ensuring an environment where each student can grow.
I have also worked extensively with middle school students, choreographing Frozen at Johanna Perrin Middle School and Spamalot at Barker Road Middle School. These experiences helped me fine-tune my ability to communicate clearly and effectively, ensuring that younger performers feel both supported and inspired throughout the production process.
At Point Park University’s Pittsburgh Playhouse, I directed The Bug Game and The Wedding Duet, which allowed me to experiment with more abstract and thought-provoking works. These projects tested my ability to manage creative challenges and collaborate with a team to bring bold artistic visions to life.
Throughout my career, I’ve developed strong skills in leadership, conflict resolution, and collaboration, allowing me to create a rehearsal environment where performers of all ages and skill levels can thrive. My approach to directing and choreography is rooted in clear communication, attention to detail, and a deep commitment to artistic integrity. I love to celebrate the individuality and complexity of each new project and create a one-of-a-kind result.
