It's Sweet To Meet You
Where to start?! I'm a writer, playwright, producer, director, actor, and behind-the-scenes magic maker.
​
As you know, the life of an artist takes various twists and turns--and I could fill a book on all my side gigs, hustles, and bustles throughout my career. (A stint doing cooking shows at county fairs? Yep!)
So I'll cut to the chase! The majority of my work takes place behind the scenes to manage all the logistics of producing plays and performing arts festivals. To name a few... I produced Chattanooga's first Fringe Festival at Barking Legs Theater in 2024 and I'm the Executive Producer of the annual Chattanooga Fringe Fest. I co-founded Next Exit Productions, a nonprofit performing arts organization that develops new works from the page to stage.
With Next Exit, I produced a 10-minute play fest that featured 9 new plays by local playwrights. My team and I directed an ensemble cast and crew of 60 people to deliver fully staged performances at Chattanooga Theatre Centre in 2024.
​
My passion for producing new works comes in the discovery process of putting something up that no one has seen or heard before... and exploring innovative ways to merge our imaginations.
