Artist's Statement:

as a writer and director, i am devoted to theatre and film's power to dilate consciousness.  when perception is stretched the self enters a threshold between heart and another's soul, wherein the potential to expand emotional intelligence occurs, and healing is made possible.  it is my intention to generate space and play dedicated to voices and landscapes essential to re-defining the known, the conventional. genre wise, my scripts are on a spectrum between magical realities and magical realism.

for me, work is supremely executed when roots are tethered to clown wisdom, heart is charged, and mind is led by great mystery.
