Effective, story focused experiences
Every successful production needs someone with vision and experience at the helm. Having spent nearly my entire life on stage or around it, I bring an expertise to the field of direction that focuses on text and effectiveness in telling a story. I started my directing experience by taking a brand new original work to the Prague International Fringe Theater Festival, and since then I've been directing entertainment for over ten years. I've directed plays, entire festivals, a camp theater program, and even audio plays. It has been an honor to be in a variety of leadership positions in the entertainment industry, an area I thrive in and excel at, to continued success. One should organize an event that is accessible and easy to navigate so that the audience is immersed in the entertainment they came to see. I believe in an environment that puts the performers and their abilities first in any production. If you can't do it with a nearly blank stage and tremendous performers, you shouldn't do it all. All the bells and whistles come after. I'm here to craft a story first and foremost in a way that the audience feels included and leaves having been easily welcomed into the story.
